Graves disease prognosis

What is the prognosis if you have Graves disease? Quality of life, limitations and expectatios of someone with Graves disease.

1 answer

Graves Disease is a lifelong disease, no matter if you do anti-thyroid medication, surgery or radioactive iodine. Life will return to as close to normal as possible, if you have normal labs and a supportive group of family and/or friends. Personally, I am still dealing with my emotions and anxiety. This is a chronic condition and the symptoms and numbers can only be managed.
