A member asked:
After my rai over 2 years ago it seems as if all my symptoms have came back with even more. is this possible?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: If you had your rai for the treatment of grave's disease, it is possible for thyroid tissue to grow back and for recurrence to occur. You should discuss this with your doctor and have your thyroid levels checked.
