Jas, seriously, make an appointment to see Dr Mortimer direct at his private practive at the RBWH. He is a professor of endochrinology and he even bulk bills in his private practice. And you just get your bloods done at he hospital after your appointment and he will ring you the next day with the results.

Serene, I hope you are feeling better soon sweetie. Considering your graves is playing up so badly I guess one thing you'll have to consider is that if you have RAI is it likely you will end up needing more than one dose? The main reason why I chose surgery over RAI was one, because endo said it was likely I'd need more than one dose of RAI which would significantly delay any TTC #2 plans, and 2 having a toddler, she wouldn't understand why I couldn't go within a meter of her for 10 whole days and 3, I had a fairly sizeable goitre. I cannot comment on the lithium sorry. Good luck with your decision.
