So to give you some hope, once you get things calibrated you should feel better pretty quickly. There is an adjustment while you figure out replacement thyroid dosages but it can be quicker than you might think. Can you tell your firm you’re dealing with some short-term medical issues that you expect to be resolved, and ask them if they would prefer that you take leave?
Ultimately, you need to take care of yourself and I’m sorry that you’re being put in this situation

I would maybe just let them know fairly casually that you had something medical going on that has been corrected? It’s kind of hard to know without understanding the personalities and dynamics exactly what to say but I would tell them, not super apologetically, but in a way that clearly indicates things are going to be on the upswing. I’m sorry again that you’re in this position, it sucks so much to have to deal with a medical condition and then job stress on top of it
I believe you can get back to feeling good! My mother-in-law has Graves’ disease and had a 43-year career as a corporate executive. Take care of yourself and you’ll get back to crushing it when you’re ready.
