Wen i was 18 i was that far overactive it tuk ages to get bk to norm, at the mo, im off all tabs and still monitoring it. iodine treatment is next on the list 4 me. Wow i thought i was in the minority at that age.
makes 3 of us then lol, i was a rarity at my hosp till they did the op. the aftercare has been a real let down thou.
Personally never had effects from the levo itself but obviously u get the overactive side effects like tiredness, constant loss of weight, i had hand tremors and mood swings. Was also unfortunate to get my eyes swell up, left wasnt as bad as the right one but didnt look too nice. Had 3 cosmetic ops on my right eye to try and improve it, poss gonna need a 4th at some point but hey how!
I was lead to beleive iodine in a male at a young age wasnt the best idea due to the thought of having radioactive stuff in you and sperm count etc but when i look back i was kinda pushed towards the op by the specialist so was probably a good test subject for him
