what happens now?

May 30, 2003

Hi guys, my name is tanya, and im 22 yrs old, about 4

years ago i started feeling really tired, and i went

to the doctors countless time. I finally got told it

was all in my head and i got referred to a

phsycologist. So i put up with it. just recently, i

started to get panic attacks, the got really scary, to

the poit that i thought i was going to die, and i

called an amulance. i also started to lose a great

deal of weight, i have a 16 month old daughter, and i

thought i was losing my baby fat late. i went to the

doctors, and finally, he did some blood tests, and

found out i have hyperthyroidism, and an ultrasound on

my neck found i have graves disease, im still a bit

unfamiliar with it all, but it explains alot of

things. im got put on medication, but i started

getting uncontrolable fits of anger, i was even scared

i would harm my child, luckily i have a very

supportive family, the doctor lowered my medication,

and i have to get a blood test in 2 weeks, i just want

to know, what happens now, my doctor hasnt been very

clear, so if anyone out there could shed some light, i

would be greatfull........................................................tanya
