the horrid life of hyperthyroidism ..remedies
Posted , 7 users are following.
Well, ive read alot of peoples stories for a few years now n thought id write mine to help someone else or just to let them know this is a loooong struggle to deal with alone n where no one understands where you are coming from.
I got over active thyroids (graves disease) and diabetes when I was 16 and my dad had died, which literally felt as though my heart ripped in half. I'm 21 now and still on medication carbamozile 40mg and propanol
This disease has damaged my body so much that I think when my hyperthyroidism clears up it will still have the biggest effect on my bones and muscles lately I have had a horrible feeling in my shoulder like it isnt correctly in its socket n falling out which feels like someone is ripping my arm off, my goiter is tight n quite a big bump, I can no longer work as ny heart rate is way too fast even when walkin for 30 seconds I live four flights up in my block no lift which of course makes me want to kill myself just on the second floor.
I cant stand being in sun or heat as when I do my eyes cant open and I get this burning n strained feeling behind my eyes constantly my teeth are getting chipped which I reckon is because my bones are weak and I find it hard to breath these days, awaiting surgery although they changed ther mind and said they will try radio iodine treatment first. My state of mind is always angry and irritated
Anyone else feel crap lol? Im pretty sure I think about dying 6 times a day and I cant even explain how I feel mentally anymore.
Also I have found if you work a fast paced job just let it go fall asleep in the staff room, after a shift put ur legs on the wall so the blood circulates

I know what you mean about doctors not having time to discuss things properly. Last time I saw my endocrinologist she told me my blood test results were great but, when I said I wasn't really feeling well, she just said "well, there's a lot of viruses going around at the moment" and didn't really offer anything else. It sounds like you need to do a load of research and, in a way, tell your doctors what you want to happen. You are obviously suffering, physically and mentally, and thinking about dying 6 times a day is not good. There is a wealth of information and support on this forum so do use it whenever you need to.

Well thats really good for you, did you have a goiter? Because mine needs to go down allloootttt before changes will happen because the breathing is the hardest thing n my goiter is too tight around my windpipe which has obviously effected my heart

I have been lucky I had no side affects from my overactive thyroid or the Carbinmazole except tiredness
