Although the doctors’ comments are helpful, what I would love to see in your column is the treatment; successful doctor tested ‘remedies and treatments of: Pre-Tibial Myxedema – one of the nasty side affects of Grave’s Disease.

I have Grave’s-diagnosed in 1988; Grave’s Eye Disease and
Pre-Tibial Myxedema -(1997 for one full year, tumors and all else); going into remission end of 2005 and am presently heading into the 3rd month of it becoming very active once again. ????Any help on this would benefit not only me, but all others (1-4% of all Grave’s Disease patients have this syndrome, so not a lot of us, but decidedly a terrible thing to deal with when there seems to be NO really helpful remedy…it just runs it’s mind-blowing course and then ‘hides’ again until the next time.. Thanks for any help.
