question: Hi, I was diagnosed with Graves disease 5 years ago. When I started taking carbimazole to treat it, I experienced tiredness and sore muscles/joints. The specialist said these were normal side-effects, but after stopping the treatment after 1.5 years, these symptoms did not go away. And I developed numbness and tingling in my left foot, which gradually spread up my left leg, and down my left arm, into my left hand. I ve seen various specialists, including a neurologist to rule out MS, and had 2 MRI scans over the past 4 years, and had a lumbar puncture done approx 3 years ago. All tests came back negative. I ve now been discharged from all specialists, and since my carbimazole treatment, I ve been in remission for Graves . The neurologist did say that it s possible (though unlikely) that I might develop MS at some stage, and to go back if my symptoms develop. I ve since been diagnosed with fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, and have tried all treatments but to no avail. I m currently medication-free. The last few weeks, I ve been much more sensitive to sound, light and smell. Please advise. Thanks.
