Grave's disease

2020-11-17 13:56:05
Hi i am 22 yrs old mbbs student. Yesterday i got diagnosed from Grave's disease. Endocrinologist told me to go for radioactive iodine thyroid ablation. Even i booked an appointment for that. Now i read a study on this therapy by American thyroid association in which they said that the life is worse after 6-8 years of RAI therapy compared to surgery and drugs. Now i am little stressed. Is it Good to go for this ? Will it be good for my carrier ? I am worried about thyroid eye disease too in thd future, but now i only have dryness and little heavy one eyelid. Please guide!!🙏🏻
