Erin Moriarty, who plays Annie January on Prime Video’s The Boys, took to Instagram this week to share news of her diagnosis of Graves’ disease. In the post, she wrote, “Autoimmune disease manifests differently in everybody/every body. Your experience will be different from mine. My experience will be different from yours. Perhaps greatly, perhaps minutely. One thing I can say: if I hadn’t chalked it all up to stress and fatigue, I would’ve caught this sooner. A month ago, I was diagnosed with Graves’ disease.“ She continued, ”Within 24 hours of beginning treatment, I felt the light coming back on. It’s been increasing in strength ever since. If yours is dimming, even slightly, go get checked. Don’t ‘suck it up’ and transcend suffering; you deserve to be comfy. Sh--’s hard enough as is.” Graves’ disease is an autoimmune condition that causes hyperthyroidism, and is more common in women and those over the age of 30.
