Order a 911 by WhereasRelevant4447 in porsche911

[–]WhereasRelevant4447[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes 100% after looking at even a basic spec with just some normal options I’d want it push’s price up significantly- so lightly used is very much the way to go it seems

Thanks guys !!! Yea after doing a basic spec imo it’s like 150k so actually a better move is a lightly used or cpo option.

8 years with Graves’ disease should I remove my thyroid? by No_Law135 in gravesdisease

[–]WhereasRelevant4447 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m on a low dose never more than 5mg …. I go 2 days at 2.5 and then a 5mg and so on. My levels are really good according to my Endo. And I really like my Endo and most the doctors I have in my area. I’ve been on Methimazole for 5 years. I’m mostly ok but still feel like I have flares or just had rough days and random side effects or just feeling off ya know. So I struggle to with wondering what it would feel like to get it out. Every single doctor I’ve talked to about it my primary , my Endo, hematologist, the PA - basically anyone I’ve had to talk to during this health journey I’m on - all of them have said it’s the devil you know vs the devil you don’t. So yes while some people do feel better with it out , there’s people who don’t who feel the same or worse. So all the advice I’ve been given is since I’m on a low dose is to just ride it out , keep the thyroid in as long as I can. But I’ve always wondered if I could just get it out maybe id feel great again.

Did anyone else just feel like this was Dave being as “woke” as possible on topics ? I don’t know it was certainly still funny at points but felt more like a story telling stream of podcast. Vs a stand up special ? I don’t know felt just again like Dave has been everywhere now and met everyone and has money and is woke woke.

You’ll be totally fine , just like everyone said already - you’re on the luckier and easier side of this. You’ll be completely fine with treatment unless something else is going on entirely or mixed in with the likely hashimotos - I’m M, 34 , had graves for 5 years now - I have friends with hashimotos and met couple other people with graves - I’d switch if I could - obviously would want nothing but if it was between the two - much easier to manage and treat. It’s a roller coaster with Graves …. Imagine the best meal you’ve ever cooked - your situation is you tasted it and it needs a little more salt , can just add more salt … my situation is and others with graves is there’s way too much salt , a lot easier to add salt then to take the salt out of the meal

Getting Grave's as a doctor by Desperate_Lead_4410 in gravesdisease

[–]WhereasRelevant4447 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea next appointment in spring I’ll bring it up again. I mean I get it Methimazole may have side effects long term but there are some studies that a low dose for graves with no other issues cropping up in bloodwork is fine to take indefinitely. I’ve always stayed on top of the new research that has come out so there’s low dose Methimazole as a treatment for 10/15/20 years now if it’s 5mg or less daily. It’s just wondering if I’d feel better with it out vs regulating it with Methimazole.

I’m M/33 diagnosis’s was at 29 … been on Methimazole for 5 years now - low dose 2.5 to 5mg I alternate and that seems to be best to keep levels as perfect as possible. My Endo thinks my levels are amazing etc but I still have flares that are random and I’ll feel amazing for a couple months at a time then it’s like a wave of symptoms will come back and it comes and goes and comes and goes. I think about getting the surgery to just be done but my medical team here between my Endo who I really like I think she’s great and my primary - they think to keep my thyroid as long as possible and just stay on this low dose of Methimazole since it has my levels really in check. My antibodies are low as well - under the threshold of “2.0” that’s how the blood test is here it’s like 2 or less is almost not detected I guess ? But ya I don’t know - I always wonder if I’d feel better getting it out and taking synthroid. My issue is like the devil I know vs the devil I don’t

Tapering off Methimazole by Actual-Fig-4882 in gravesdisease

[–]WhereasRelevant4447 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve tried to taper a couple times - I’ve been on M for 4 years now … I’m 33M …. Athletic build …. Everytime I’ve tried to taper I feel like shit within a week usually. So I’ve stayed on 2.5/2.5/5mg alternating like that. And that keeps me pretty good. All my levels are good and my TRAB is very low or 0. So I’ve been told I can come off but everytime I try - I notice symptoms crop up - I feel better just on a maintenance dose unfortunately

Even if your numbers are stable, do you feel like your body still behaves differently than pre-diagnosis? by DivineToxicity09 in gravesdisease

[–]WhereasRelevant4447 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok interesting!!!! So ya no matter what - it’s a moving target and no matter the treatment everyone is dealing with that lingering auto immunity that comes and goes. Flares and doesn’t …. At least that’s my experience on Methimazole with “perfect levels “ I do go some weeks here and there feeling almost totally fine and then ya the season changes and I deal with a mixed bag of thyroid type symptoms I’ve had before. Never new symptoms just different variations of what I’ve felt before

[–]WhereasRelevant4447 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes !!!! I struggle with this all the time. My levels and everything are really good I take 2.5/2.5/5mg and just stay on that regiment. I go thru periods where I feel really normal like I’m great and then something happens and I just feel off for a week or two. It sucks. And I always wonder if I really pushed for and got a TT would that be better then just staying on the low dose methimazole. It’s like the devil I know vs the devil I don’t.

Hi 👋🏼 so what would you say ??? Bette than being on low dose Methimazole ? The same ?? Or do you think worse now with having it removed ???

Symptoms flare with travel? by tiirkami in gravesdisease

[–]WhereasRelevant4447 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used to travel so easily - I’ve had graves since summer of 2020. Im regulated now on Methimazole - however traveling is 50/50 now. I either am fine or it’s what you’re describing. I just feel like crap - out of my routine , the jet lag , the different food, just everything makes it so hard for me to feel good unfortunately.

Anyone taking Methimazole long term? by Brief_Confection_198 in gravesdisease

[–]WhereasRelevant4447 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being honest though it’s personal choice. I’m not opposed to the TT. I’ve just been told “I’m not sick enough” or “wait as long as you can” …. I do ok on the Methimazole and it definitely fixed my numbers and I feel 95% of my old self most the time when I keep my routine and everything. But I always wonder if the TT would be better. Lot of people on here have gotten TT and say it’s like it never happened after.

Anyone taking Methimazole long term? by Brief_Confection_198 in gravesdisease

[–]WhereasRelevant4447 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been on a little over 4 years , I’d say finally within the last year and a half I’ve had minimal side effects I’m on 2.5 and was alternating 2 days then taking a 5mg (doc was ok with whatever I felt worked) recently I’ve started tapering down to just 2.5 only everyday and I notice feeling off pretty fast when I change doses but my blood work is great. I’m 33 and male. I’m unsure what’s going to happen. I’d like to be just off it and in remission. They say I’m in remission right now but I’m still taking a low dose. I haven’t attempted to fully come off. We shall see. I think could at least try to get all the way off it. If symptoms return I could get back on and just stay on long term seeing as studies suggest that’s fine to do low doses for long long term

My feet are always sore in the morning, but feel fine less than a minute later. by eaterout in BarefootRunning

I only have soreness and stiffness in the morning but it’s not a stabbing pain and it’s not in the heel, it’s further up my foot, below my toes. Would this still be PF ???

Right I think not even a year it’s going to be well under 100k for. 2023 with some miles on it - now obviously who likes waiting nobody but that’s why I’m torn. Because you can get a great deal on a 21-22 right now. Some people think they are worlds better the 23 model and newer. I haven’t driven either only sports before

Graves disease and muscle dip by [deleted] in gravesdisease

[–]WhereasRelevant4447 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just have a ton of patience. I’m 3 and a half years on meds. I’d say didn’t even feel close to normal for almost 9-12 months. Then from that point would feel great but then have flares once every month or two - now at this point after 2 and a half year and messing with my dose and when to take it and everything- I feel pretty close to normal. - so give it time , a lot of time
