Question

Patients who are being treated medically for hyperthyroidism must understand that they have an illness that requires ongoing medication and frequent monitoring to assess the effectiveness of treatment. Sometimes it is difficult for the patient's family to accept and cope with the emotional outbursts and mood changes that occur when the disease is not under control. Once hormone levels return to the normal range, the mental and physical symptoms should subside.
