Hyperthroid cindtion after 2 months treatment

Hi Am Rajesh, Aged 30..

few months back I used to feel tired and used to get headache , hence my doctor suggested to go for thryroid test .
blood reports showed that, the thyroid levels  are high, after one more blood check test, Doctor confirmed that I am hyperthryoid .

Intillay they gave hyeprthryoid tablets for one month and stooped for 10 days, later they asked to go ROI up take test.
in The ROI update it showed the update as 3.6% .. so they confirmed that its grave deasie and ask to go for radio iodine treatment .

Hence two months back I took 10mci ROI tablet. my tiredness reduced little bit but still there whenever I do some physical work .. and also I still I feel light headedness and little headache  whenever I bend my head .

Still I am not able concentrate on my work .. its eating my propession work ..
is this still common..? How long it will take come  to atleast better condition .
Exactly 8 weeks over after my ROI treatment.

Since I am currently out of station am not able to reach my doctor.

After RAI, it can take up to a year for the thyroid to completely die off.  As it's dying off, dying cells dump thyroid hormone into the blood, making you still feel hyper.  Of course, you will see improvement along the way.  We're all different, so it's impossible to give you a timeframe.

You will eventually become hypothyroid, so watch for symptoms to change, indicating you may need to start meds.

Have you had thyroid blood work since having your RAI?  Please post those results with reference ranges (they vary lab to lab and have to come from your own lab report).  Are you taking thyroid meds?  If so which ones and at what dosage?
