Hi All,

I have graves disease and my thyroid is now thankfully under control, i have only recently come off Carbimizole but i am left with nearly two stone of extra weight.

its been nearly 6 months of healthy eating and regular exercise ( i take spin classes and yoga I have always been generally quite fit) and if anything my weight goes up! its so frustrating as nothing fits me anymore. I have had my bloods taken regularly and my level is absolutely fine.

Anyone who has gone through this that can share any advice about how long it takes to get back to normal after coming off the medication would really help!

Much Appreciated Sam
