I am currently on medication, for the third time in about 12 years, for Graves
Disease. My experience is that Carbimazole corrects the significant negative
effect that the condition has on the voice and singing generally . Because I
have good "luck" with this medication I have not so far seriously considered
radioactive iodine treatment.
