Graves disease: The cause of your hyperthyroidism is likely to be graves disease. This can be associated with eye problems including bulging, inflammation, and/or double vision. It is related to the autoimmune problem associated with graves disease, not directly related to thyroid function. The herbalife is unrelated. This problem can occur at any time regardless of your treatment for hyperthyroidism.

Graves disease!: Sounds like graves disease or thyroid ophthalmopathy. A condition where the muscle and fat behind the eye enlarge and push the eyes forward< "bulge" (exophthalmos). See your eye md.
