A member asked:
Can you die from having graves disease or hashimoto disease?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Only if untreated.: It would be rare to pass away from graves disease or hashimoto disease, as these diseases are easy to diagnose and treat in this era. Very rarely, if a patient was avoiding medical care, the thyroid condition could, in time, become severe enough to be fatal.
