Hey! I'm Rayanne!

 
Thank you for stopping by to learn more about Graves Disease! I created this page as a complimentary website to my already existing blog (www.rayannesthoughts.blogspot.com) Here you will find just the beginning of my new found mission to bring awareness to Graves Disease. When I was diagnosed in 2010 at 22 years old, I discovered that there was very little to read about how my life was going to change, other than trying to dissect important information in-between copy and pasted medical text books online. That’s where the idea to create an all patient written based blog began. Going through all the symptoms of Graves Disease left me with surgical scars and bulgy eyes that I repeatedly got asked about by friends and strangers. That’s when I knew that there needed to be more awareness brought to this disease so that the patients of the future would not have to deal with the hurtful comments I have had to. While I am only in the beginning phases of my ultimate goal; to make “Graves Disease” as well known as the word “Cancer”. If you would like to learn more about my adventures from diagnosis to now; please visit my other blog!
