deleted_user 07/22/2008. Is your hyperthyroidism caused by Grave's Disease. Itchy skin is a staple symptom of Grave's disease. I have hyperthyroidism caused by Grave's disease and still have itchy skin, even though my thyroid levels have come down to normal after RAI. My dr. has not diagnosed me as having Graves Disease.
Gravesâ disease is actually the most common cause of hyperthyroidism âwhen your thyroid gland over-produces thyroid hormone. Although Gravesâ disease canât be prevented or treated through diet alone, certain foods can help ease Gravesâ disease symptoms. How much you need to eat: 1 or more servings a day. 2  Dairy Products: Untreated Gravesâ disease can cause bone loss (which can lead to osteoporosis), but once Gravesâ disease is treated, you need calcium to rebuild those bones. 3  Get plenty of calcium from dairy foods, such as cheese, milk, and yogurt.
