Help, any comments greatly appreciated!!!

I was diagnosed with Hashimotos Thyroididus in 2010, then was told it was Graves disease.also tested postitive for lupus but was told graves disease could cause a flase positive and should wait until after treatment to test again. I took beta blockers and anti-thyroid meds for 2 yrs then was told to take a radio-active iodine treatment.. which I did, and now my endo says I am now hypo insteadd of  hyper.. I am currently taking Levothyroxine 100mg.. within 4 days of taking this i had a complete loss of vision for 2 hrs, and since my vision is always blurred, ive started having constant migraines, never have an appetite and have to force myself to eat( which is not much at all) all in all I feel like I did before I eever took the treatment except no heart palpitations.. I feel wired, cant sleep, and my teeth have in just one yr of meds started breaking and discoloring?.. has any one else had anything similar? my endo acts like none of it is a big deal, but i have two small children at home and this really scares me.

I agree that you may need to change doctors; however, before I'd strongly advise that, I'd like to know what your current thyroid levels are.

You should be getting tested regularly, for TSH, Free T3 and Free T4.. Please post your levels, along with reference ranges, which vary lab to lab, so must come from your own report.

Do you know which antibody tests were run on you to determine both the Hashimoto's and Graves?

Hello,
    If I were you I would change doctors fast!!!!  I have also had radioactive iodine treatment and have never had any symptoms that you have mentioned.  Please change doctors.
