I have a good friend who has graves and is scheduled for surgery on the 17th of July. She is using the same surgeon I did, and he has told her she should not have problems or complications due to the graves. E-mail questions to me and I'll have her e-mail you back. [email protected] Good LUck.

I have Graves Disease and had my surgery 2/20/01. I have not been on any medication for Graves for 3 years. There were no problems for me and I am down around 80 pounds. YEA!
