Listening to @theJeremyVine on @BBCRadio2 right now... I was diagnosed with Graves’ disease a few years ago. It’s bloody awful and changes your life. Basically the thyroid gland goes into overdrive. Lot of support out there but, sadly no real “cure.”
Keys symptoms:
Loss of weight but increased appetite.
Hand tremors and shakes
Constantly feeling anxious
Heart palpitations
General exhaustion all the time

It was the amazing @DrRadhaModgil who told me to visit my GP after working together on a special series about childhood obesity. I just thought I was over worked, tired and run ragged but a simple blood test revealed diagnosis. 
I was prescribed a medication called #Carbimazole and thyroid levels balance out over time. Unfortunately... I recently relapsed. #GravesDisease
