Any help would be appreciated.

Hi leelee. I also have Graves Disease, and my hair fell out too. The good news is that it will grow back. I had my thyroid removed and now have a full head of hair again. Graves Disease can also be treated with medication. Talk about your fears with your doctor. He will point you in the right direction. Good luck and try not to worry too much
