lybrate-user ji, thanks for the query.
I have gone through the details given. Hyperthyroidism is treated with carbimazole or other anti-thyroid drugs. Usually these drugs are given for a period of 18 to 24 months. In quite a few cases thyroid function returns to normal during this period or even earlier. When that happens, anti-thyroid drugs (carbimazole) are discontinued. Again in quite a few patients there is no further hyperthyroidism seen. However, if symptoms return or if again tsh goes...more

Dear this itchy patches may be because of some fungal infection. You can try applying candid cream twice a day and apply some talcum powder to keep the area dry. If it does not help, then you hv to visit the doctor personally.

graves disease is common in women ,it appears during phases of extreme stress , adolescence, during pregnancy
good news is that it disappears as suddenly as it appears
one can reduce the dose of medicines depending upon general condition and thyroid profile
neomercazole is the drug of choice

This is little tricky. If you want to opt for radio active iodine treatment, then you need to wait for 6- 12 months post treatment to plan a child. Also, you have to make sure, that preconception TSH of your wife is normal before planning a child. Or else you can opt for surgery to remove Thyroid gland partly or fully as the case may be & replace the Thyroid dose of required & plan your family.

Mr. lybrate-user, thanks for the query.
Usually treatment with anti-thyroid drugs (neomercazole or other drugs) is given for 18 to 24 months. Once the levels return to normal treatment is discontinued. If levels remain with in normal range over a long period (2 to 3 years or so) disease is considered as cured. However, if tsh levels drop again, which means hyperthyroidism has resurfaced, some times antithyroid drug's course may be repeated. Otherwise other means of treatment mainly radio act...more

Doing repeated mtps will affect your future pregnancy and you might face problems in conceiving. So better use regular contraception like condoms if not planning for pregnancy at present.

I am very sorry to hear what you're going through.
Hyperthyroidism can cause you a range of bizarre symptoms and you could be anxious and depressed at the same time.
