I was recently diagnosed with graves disease and thyroid ablation was the recommendation. Although I am scheduled to have this done in 2 weeks, I am very nervous because I have not gotten a second opinion. I've have severe irritability and anxiety for so long now that I don't want to waste the time if the doctor is right and this will help. I travel a lot so postponing for a second opinion will require about 4-6 more months before I could get treatment. However, I don't want to do something that will make it worse. I understand that sinthroid does not work for all women and i'm afraid i'll be going through this for a very long time. Any input that I get from anyone with knowledge, I will very much appreciate. Thank you.
