Hello everyone. I’ve been DX with Graves’ disease a few years ago. After years of (failed) treatment of the thyroid I chose to use the RAI. Biggest mistake ever. My (left) eye has reacted to it. Last week I received methyl prednison treatments for a week (500mg a day) and I am approved for my..

I was told that I have an abnormal thyroid. I am very sad and don't know what to do. I was told this autoimmune disease is not curable only can be treated. I don't know how I got it. inflammation? parents working me like an animal all throughout covid? a loss of an ex who betrayed me?

9 months into Graves' disease and you guys, I'm really exhausted of this. The hair loss/breakage is killing me. I've resorted to washing my hair once a week and filling it with mousse and dry shampoo. Wherever I part my hair it looks like this. Does anyone know of anything I can use to help????
