when i was hyperthyroid, i too had incredibly weak muscles in my
thighs.  i found it really hard to walk up the stairs and if i crouched
down to pick sojmething up, i had to literally *heave* myself back up
like an old woman - and THAT i am not!

i went through rai and am now on synthroid after going hypo earlier this

year and my muscle tone has totally changed.  i am back to my old
strength.  in my case, the onset was gradual and at first (before i was
diagnosed with graves) i just put it down to being generally unfit!
