Hyperthyroidism/ Thyroid Storm

Hi everyone, ive been recently diagnosed in November. After 8 months pp, I’ve been on carbimazole but 5 days ago I broke out in hives & experienced a thyroid storm. After being in a&e hey’ve changed my meds and stabilised me but I still itch like crazy. I wonder if anyone has been through this & have any ideas how I can lower my levels via food etc?

Thanks so much

I was diagnosed with hypo at 4 months pp with my 1st baby. I went into thyroid storm which is how I was diagnosed.

I had an intolerance to dairy before but is now heightened. So I avoid dairy entirely and have read studies about how gluten isn’t good and if you reduce your intake it can reduce inflammation. I can’t eat gluten since being diagnosed without flaring up in hives so perhaps something to consider and discuss with your doc? Xx
