Yeah, I got through! This is my second question in 6 months. I have the Amiodarone based hyperthyroidism. I guess they decided it was type 1, although it may have been mixed. My free T4 has gradually dropped from 7 to 2.3. My TSH is still barely measurable at .004. Antibodies were repeated and are normal. It has been since about Aug. 27 that I was diagnosed. I saw my PCP last week and he mentioned that I should have the radioactive ablation when my numbers are normal. I was under the impression that once the iodine from the drug was finally out of my system, that I would need no further treatment. Am I naive or will I need to either keep taking the PTU or need an ablation? I am on 150 mg. q8h now. When should it be decreased? My tremor is almost gone, and my stools are rarely loose, and I am sleeping better. My resting heart rate is now 60, down from 100! What's next? I am unable to get in to see the endocrine til Jan.! Thanks for your response, Dr. Mark.
