A member asked:
How long can hyperthyroid go (i'm already pretty anorexic looking from this now) before there is major or unreversable damage if any occurs?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends : Depends in how severe it is. Generally little permanent damage. Unless there is eye involvement. But that is highly variable and has little direct correlation with thyroid hormone levels themselves.
