Feeling like a shell of myself
I was diagnosed 3 months ago. I’ve seen the endocrinologist once, and he said that the graves was mild, and he placed me on 2.5 mg of Methimazole once a day. My next appointment is in June.
I’ve been dealing with this for over a year. When I was first diagnosed I was anxious and shaky, had heart palpitations. Because of my appetite I actually gained weight instead of losing it.
And now, I have no energy at all. Rest doesn’t help because it’s not restorative. I wake up even more exhausted, I work from home, and some days I can barely get through the day. I hate this. I am short with the people I love, and this is not me. I’m just feeling sorry for myself, but I had to write it down in the hopes that I can do something with it. I’m just feeling sorry for myself. Maybe I should talk to someone.
