    Boy did you leave a big possible complication out. After my surgery on of the newly placed clips sliced a vain in half and I ended up getting basically got compartment syndrome in my neck 2 days post op and it closed off my airway and I died for 4 min. The pressure was so strong it made all my cervical vertebrae discs bulge, Long story as a Dr you get the jist.

    I have been living with hyperthyroidism for almost 8 years now. I currently taking carbimazole to control my thyroid but its been too long now I feel my health is failing and I may succumb to this illness soon. I really need help. Is surgery safe. It surgery the safest option. I have been told so many negative things that is why I haven't take surgery till now. I have two beautiful kids I want to see grow up. There is also radioactive iodine but that is not available in my country. Any male out there with similar condition please enlighten on how you got your cured. I need help and I need help fast
