Thyroid Eye Disease experience?
My daughter has Graves disease which led to hyperthroidism. With medication her condition has stabilized. But it also led to thyroid eye disease (TED) and bulging eyes. Has anyone had any experience with successful treatment of TED in the Bay Area, especially with bulging eyes? It has changed her appearance and has taken a big emotional and mental toll. She is being monitored by an opthamologist who says medically, she has a mild case, but I recently heard of Teprotumumab (Tepezza brand name) which is a new drug used to treat TED. Has anyone had success with this drug either for themselves or for a family member?
Thank you for any information.
