question: My daughter has had her thyroid removed. She is now having more problems since having surgery. Levels are off the chart. She has been given depakoat and atavan. She is like a zombie, crying spells. slurred speech, cannot make rational decisions. She is in management with a large celluar company. She has been seeing a dr. at M.D. Amderson for about three years before having thyroid removed. We are at our wits end. She is now seeing psychiatrist who have diagnosed her as bi-polar, which seems to only make things worse. I want my daughter to be healthy and happy again. It has been a long road. She has now been given abilify to try. Does any one know what is the matter with my daughter?
