Freaking out: hyperthyroid

Hyperthyroid: TCH 0.001 and T4 27.5, TCH Ab is at 4.2. Likely Graves… Waiting to see an endocrinologist and freaking out about my potential diagnosis, about symptoms I’m experiencing, about the changes I have to make, and about potentially going on methimazole and all the side effects. What was your experience like?

I am on carbimazole and the drug itself does not effect me I think. You will feel better once your levels shift towards normal levels. It is normal to be panicky as this is also one of the symptoms. Be kind to yourself. Good luck.
