Looking for
something specific?

Hi all, I need some advice. I had Lemtrada in 2016/17 and have had an awful time of it with ITP last year and Graves Disease this year. After speaking with the Endocrinologist today he has offered either Radioactive Iodine or the surgery. Has anyone had experiences with this? Please help.

Hi Does anyone have any information about how graves adds or mimics and makes your rrms worse?

Hello folks, hope you've all had a good week. My wife was diagnosed with RRMS back in early 2020, shortly after having been diagnosed with - and treated for - acute Graves disease. Some of the symptoms of acute Graves disease blur with the symptoms of her MS (brain fog, word jumble, balance, mood)...

So it has been a while since I was last here. I have had a couple of new autoimmune conditions to join the party that is my body. Firstly, alopecia areata, I gained a small bald patch and my hair is thinning, not fun. I guess I just have to hope it will come back but I wear it up almost all the tim...

In September 2016 I had my first round of Lemtrada, felt awful initially, but then ok. This was followed by the second course in 2017 - all seemed ok. My problems started 2 years after the second course, in March 2019 I was in hospital with ITP (a rare blood disorder and a side affect from Lemtrada...

Hi everybody, I've not posted here for ages and this isn't totally MS-related but maybe somebody here is in a similar position. I was treated with Lemtrada 2015-2016. It has to be said that overall it's been a raging success. I've had three annual MRIs showing no progression and even some improvem...

Hey everyone it’s been a while Yesterday I was diagnosed with another autoimmune disease called Graves’ disease Have anyone here have 2 autoimmune disease at the same time? I am currently taking as of yesterday anti thyroid med and a beta blocker for my rapid heart rate My resting heart rate was 1...

I just got called and told by the endocrinologist that I have Graves’ disease. I had to go see him and do the tests because my gp noticed something on my monthly blood test. I guess it’s one of the risks that you have to take to do lemtrada. Has anybody else been diagnosed with a new autoimmune cond...

I had my first Lemtrada infusion in December 2014 and found that in the months after my walking improved, the pins and needles in my hands and feet were significantly reduced, my fatigue levels decreased and I could once again enjoy a hot shower. An MRI carried out in August 2015 found evidence of a...

Which one shall i take? I dont like the side effects listed with Copaxone but have had Graves disease in the past and have heard that Rebif and Avonex can cause thyroid problems. What can i do? Or shall i bite the bullet and choose Copaxone :/

Okay, a few days ago I posted on here when I was struggling to make up my mind on which DMD to start. After some research, much thought and some lovely replies from you lot, I had made up my mind to go with Copaxone. Sooo, I had an appointment with my Neurologist today who said there is a clinic...

I had Graves disease in 2005-6 and have been in remission since. I was always told to never take vitamin suppliments as it can bring my graves back. Now how is this going to wirk with my MS? A bit stuch to be hinest :(
