hi I was diagnoised with hyerthry-graves disease back in oct 2010 and every since then even thou my levels are at where they are to be at, I still have a lot of pain in my feet and calfs. my feet hurt at ankles and heel of feet and i get pain up my calfs with some times cramping. i have as my current endo and he says it could be something else. they hurt so bad after standing all day at work  when i get home an  sit for a minute and try to get back up I feel like a old lady and cant walk on my feet even when I get up from bed in morning its just as bad, I started all these problems with my thyroid that I can remember when I was put on gabapentin then changed to lyrica can this have started it and what can be the issue with my feet thanks

This appears to be Graves' disease - would see an endocrinologist for confirmation and treatment options.  Usually we start with methimazole and use radioactive iodine or surgery if needed.

o Doctor,

I truly hope that you can help me out.  I have been experiencing pain on my left side of my body along with strong palpatations, hot flashes and extreme soreness for the past three months.  I am confused as to why I am experiencing such discomfort on my left side of my body, but my results from thyroid ultrasound were negative.  Below I have pasted my blood results indicating my thyroid issues.  In addition, I am have a very difficult time sleeping.  Do you have any recommendations or suggestions?

tsh.03/normal range is .35-5.50
ft4 1.3
thyroid stimulating immunoglob is 6.0 tsi index /normal range is less than or equal to 1.3
Ultrasound was normal.

Thanks in advance!
