hi, i am new at this, never been in a chat room before. Yes i am diagnosed now for 18 months and have had recent bloods a week ago and the tests that show all levels hormones (even free T3, 4) as normal. I go to a reputable public hospital here in Stockholm so I am assuming the tests are true. I feel terrible and am having these symptoms (getting worse at the weekend). I am recently being treated with cortisone injections ( 2 so far) for a back related problem (nerve block C5+S1). I have had several colds over the new year, january period (the whole family was sick with something) and now have a moderate chest infection (coughing and upper respiratory symptoms). I took some inderal last week and it made no difference but had a scary weekend, with a huge headache, nausea, buzzing in the head, palpitations. Of course my husband is out of town for a few days. These symptoms have been getting worse and i am in total confusion. I await the endochron doctor to call me back hopefully today. I just found this forum and posted this question and read about 'thyroid storms' and now i am totally freaked out! I am actually feeling better than at the weekend but am now very concerned. Have you heard of anyone having reactions to cortisone injections whilst having Graves disease?
They are all classic symptoms of Hyperthyroidism and Graves Disease.
How long ago were your levels checked?
