Just wanted to let you know that I was just diagnosed with Graves Disease myself. I am here to give you support in any way I can. I understand what you are going through. Toxic medications are not the answer, especially radioactive iodine, which will destroy your thyroid. But on the other hand, there is the very scary possibility of Thyroid Storm in uncontrolled Graves Disease. So it has to be taken seriously. I suppose you know that Graves Disease is an autoimmune condition where the immune system attacks your thyroid. It is really more of an immune system problem than it is a thyroid problem. I found this post to be very helpful to me: //www.curezone.org/forums/fm.asp?i=19049#i
