John Ronald Reuel Tolkien was born in Bloemfontein in the Orange Free State, now South Africa, to Arthur and Mabel Tolkien. The Tolkiens were English by nationality but had recently moved to the region as Arthur, a bank employee, pursued a lucrative career opportunity.
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.
(Redirected from Symptoms and signs of Graves' disease) Virtually all the signs and symptoms of Graves' disease result from the direct and indirect effects of hyperthyroidism, with exceptions being Graves' ophthalmopathy, goitre and pretibial myxedema (which are caused by the autoimmune processes of Graves' disease).
