I am on 40mg of carbimazole and have only one mouth ulcer, is it worth mentioning to my doctor?
I do not have a sore throat but mouth ulcer on tip of my tongue is big. I have read that you should tell your doctor about mouth ulcers.

Will I put a lot of weight on taking 40mg carbimazole every day?
I lost 2 stone before I was diagnosed with Graves Disease and I'm terrified of putting it all back on.

I have had an overactive thyroid and have been on carbimazole and atenolol. Has anyone had radioactive iodine?
I have an appointment to have radioactive iodine for this but I am unsure whether to go ahead with it or not. Anyone know the pros and cons? Anyone know anyone who has had this treatment?
Thanks

does anyone know the maximum length of time a patient should take carbimazole for an overactive thyroid?
my boyfriend takes 20mg of carbimazole for an overactive thyroid and has been taking it for nearly four years now and im worried that he has been on it for to long as there are many risks in taking the drug. has anyone been on the drug for this long ? or no of the average amount of time a patient is to take the drug? im worried the doctor is not doing enough as ive heard of other patients being given radioactive iodine treatment, and changing medications. if anyone has advice or knows anything about this please let me no. Thanks

4 years is too long. The medical treatment, using antithyroid drugs like carbimazole is 18 months to 2 years and is only 40% affective. It is often used to stabilise the thyroid prior to administering radio active iodine or surgical thyroidectomy...this would render the patient hypothyroid but tends to resolve the problem and the patient would remain on thyroxine for life. Your boyfriend should have attended a endocrinologist and a plan of care should have been made...if not he needs to ask for this.
Good luck. x

you better tell your doctor what side effects you are experiencing.. he needs to know your reaction to the drugs before he can prescribe you with anything.. a good medical and in your case drug history will be very helpful in deciding the appropriate drug for your condition..
will carbimazole give a total cure for goiter?
it suppresses the production of thyroid hormones ,it doesnt cure its reduces uptake of iodine resulting in less thyroid hormone production
