BRIDGET:

With Thyroid Eye Disease I hid from the camera. And I wanted to hide from the world. For years, I thought my TED was beyond help, but then I asked my doctor about TEPEZZA.

ANNOUNCER:

TEPEZZA is the only medicine that treats TED at the source, not just the symptoms. In a clinical study, more than 8 out of 10 patients taking TEPEZZA had less eye bulging.

TEPEZZA is an infusion and may cause infusion reactions. Tell your doctor right away if you experience high blood pressure, fast heartbeat, shortness of breath or muscle pain. Before treatment, tell your doctor if you have diabetes, IBD, or are pregnant, or planning to become pregnant. TEPEZZA may raise blood sugar and may worsen IBD. TEPEZZA may cause severe hearing problems, which may be permanent.

BRIDGET:

Now, I’m ready to be seen again.
