aleena 0 Report post Posted May 17, 2010 Dear Babes, Please help me!! I noticed that I was diagnosed with Hyperthyroidism (over active tyroid glands) 2 months ago when I took up a comprehensive blood test. As a result, I need to consume medication (which includes methimazole) under the supervision of a doctor for 18 months continuously. This is my 2nd month but I have already noticed that I have gained so much weight that all people around me started to take my weight as a topic to chat around. This is extremely hurt as I am at the servicing industry which I need to face the public. I became low-self esteem, depressed and emotional. I've gain 4 kgs within 1 month time and my weight still increasing from day to day even though I have controlled my diet strictly. I spoke to my doctor on my 2nd visit about my problem bt according to him, he still keep prescribing me with the same medication. I am not sure if methimazole causes my weight to increase or there is something wrong with my body. I desperately need babes out there to share with me if you have the similar problem and is there any recommendation or advice to me? Million thanks and I love you all.

[/quote] I had hyperthyroidism too but now i m lucky to have recovered now. The medication that u r taking will hv side effect of gaining weight.(as it for all hyperthyroidsm medicine) So u hv to take proper care of your diet. At first i was gainign weight too, and i slowly control my diet and the medication suppose to reduce its dosage slowly as you recover. I was on CARBIMAZOLE and with a very good physician. I was gaining abt 3 kg as a whole durin medication but manage to shred it off easily after 2 months or so. If you have any ques, do pm me as i do not frequently check this website. Good luck!
