It took me about 5 months to feel better. Right now, I am feeling pretty normal, I had HBP also. That was one of the things that made me seek help. I am now experimenting now with dropping my HBP meds, my pressure has been much lower since the thyroid came out. I am back to exercising almost every day, I still get tired in the afternoon, but I am really feeling pretty well.
Thats great to know because i am very concerned about the hbp and also being referred to a Cardiologist. I started back going to the gym last week and i'm doing pretty good...I shall see if there will be any results. I last pretty much during the day without feeling exhausted until the evening and then it's pretty much history.
Thanks for the response.
I had TT after RAI and my levels were normal after roughly 4 months...I even went back to work after 2 years of working from home (as couldnt handle work outside the home).
I have had my ups and downs with the thyroid issues..mainly stress and the pit. tumour I had and oh yes..the dreaded HIVES lol.
But seriously, I would not change a thing since RAI and TT.
My life was he// before then and even though it is hard to see it...there is light at the end of the tunnel....believe me.
(((hugs)))
It does get better and it does take some time. Hang in there!
If its any consolation...I started back at work today after taking time out for myself from stress, and 2 deaths.
Yes..there is light at the end of the tunnel.
I had my TT in September 2008 and RAI in June 2008.
Hang in there......it does get better x
I had my TT when I was 24; I did not have any health issues until I turned 37. However, I continue to work 40 hr weeks, do my weekend activities. Clean house, cook, laundry, you know the usual daily things that a little fairy will not come out during the night and do for you. ....:)
I have had four major surgeries in the last year due to health issues, but recovered & working and living life..
