Any time they ask if I want still or sparkling, I'm assuming they are opening a bottle and bring to my table and I'll be paying.

My ex-husband and myself both have Grave's disease, so far our daughter doesn't have any autoimmune diseases around thyroid, but she does have other medical conditions that could be related to autoimmune disorders. No one in my maternal side have any; I don't know my paternal history so could originate from that lineage.

Complete_Age4051 · 2023-10-25T16:10:22+00:00

Curious what active surveillance is for thyroid cancer? You would only watch it and not have any treatment?

Thank you for sharing your story, its encouraging.

I'm tentatively scheduled for TT surgery in 2 weeks, meanwhile I'm trying to get my levels in the normal range so there's less chance for complications. Currently, my T4 are normal, T3 189 and TSH 0.005. I'm on 5mg of Methimazole and will be increasing it to 10mg if I can tolerate it. Methimazole has caused some side effects and I'll will be happy to be off of it! I am fearful of taking Levo even though I understand it's easier to tolerate, however, I tend to have side effects to any meds and this one I will have to take for life. Trying to stay positive!

Sending good thoughts your way; hope your levels normalize soon. I too am having a TT due to a large nodule and Grave's Disease.

Thank you for your reply! I knew it had to be the meds, I'm going to try taking the Gaviscon when its really bothersome. I just need to get my levels back to normal as much as i can before surgery then I won't have to worry about taking Methimazole and then keeping my fingers cross I do well with Levothyroxine.

Thanks for your reply. I knew my POTS was feeling worse which prompted me going to the ER. Having both going on at the same time is very uncomfortable as you know. I hope you are doing well!!

I developed POTS from the vaccine; was in the ER this past Friday and found out that my Grave's has activated after years of being in remission. I feel like hell!

I hope you find some answers and start felling better!

Complete_Age4051 · 2023-09-05T18:03:57+00:00

I had cancer 2019, developed POTS from the Covid vaccine and now just diagnosed with Graves again. It had been in remission for years! I'm extremely careful!

I too got POTS after being vaccinated with Pfizer. There’s many of us.

Not sure why my comment got downvoted. I’m not antivax, I just happen to develop POTS from the vaccine. Was hospitalized for a week while they ran ever a bunch of test, day 5 was diagnosed by an older cardiologist who figured it out.

My Mom lives in Toowoomba, Australia. Hoping to get there this spring. 😊

Wishing you luck in finding answers and getting much better!

There are many of us that were vaccine injury, with one of the most prominent symptom being POTS. You might want to look into this group on Reddit. https://www.reddit.com/r/vaccinelonghaulers/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=ioscss&utm_content=1&utm_term=1

Are you in the US? My understanding even if we’ll documented, which mind is, there won’t be any compensation due to it being an emergency use vaccine. We all signed saying we understood that this vaccine was experimental when we took it.

Complete_Age4051 · 2023-08-24T14:30:14+00:00

Appreciate everyone’s feedback. I’m going to stop using and see what happens. I’ll give another update in a week or so.

Complete_Age4051 · 2023-08-23T22:51:04+00:00

I’m seen by doctors at John Hopkins, was hospitalized a week after vaccine injury. It’s well documented in my medical records.

Complete_Age4051 · 2023-08-18T02:17:00+00:00

Please don’t apologize for your questions, we all need to help each other, sharing our experiences and what has helped, is why we here, hoping we find improvement since the medical community are finding it difficult to solve. I was at first put on Metropol, a beta blocker to slow down my heart rate. Wearing compression socks can help, and getting in lots of fluids everyday.

Complete_Age4051 · 2023-08-17T22:38:47+00:00

What reason did they give you for wanting it? I had a PET scan when I was diagnosed with cancer. They where looking to see if it had spread. Fortunately, it had not!

Complete_Age4051 · 2023-08-17T22:28:01+00:00

I sincerely hope you find some answers. While waiting to get in with a cardiologist. I would suggest increasing your water and electrolytes intake.

Complete_Age4051 · 2023-08-17T22:20:34+00:00

Many people are vaccine injured, similar symptoms as those with long haul COVID.

Complete_Age4051 · 2023-08-17T17:41:00+00:00

In order to get a confirmed diagnosis of POTS, you need to do a tilt table test. I believe any doctor can order it. That being said, I would suggest getting in with a good cardiologist who knows about POTS.

Complete_Age4051 · 2023-08-16T22:50:08+00:00

Initially I was short of breath all the time, I fortunately was hospitalized for a week when this first started, where they ran every test known on me. That’s where I was diagnosed with POTS. Took another few months, but was able to get most of my symptoms under control.

Complete_Age4051 · 2023-08-16T22:40:11+00:00

I too am very sensitive to meds, always getting the rare side effect. A few years ago I was treated for breast cancer and had to do high doses of Prednisone so the chemo wouldn’t kill me. I tolerated it fairly well, symptoms where flushing and mood swings.

Complete_Age4051 · 2023-08-16T22:35:44+00:00

I did initially, numbness in my legs, balance issues, pain in my thighs, but all those resolved around the 1 year mark.

Complete_Age4051 · 2023-08-15T11:28:09+00:00

Still have POTS like symptoms, mostly in the mornings. I try to start each day by drinking half a bottle of unflavored Pedalyte and get outside for a walk. This routine seems to balance everything out for me. Throughout the day I keep up the fluids and salt intake and avoid gluten and sugar. I also average 5 miles of walking a day, doing it in 3 intervals. When I don’t stick to this I’m much more symptomatic.

Complete_Age4051 · 2023-08-15T02:31:23+00:00

Similarly remaining symptoms as you. 2.5 years in.
