What Is The Standard Treatment For Hyperthyroidism?

I was just found out my blood work is showing I have hyperthyroidism. I am now in the process of setting up an appointment with endocrinologist but in the mean time my question is How is hyperthroid most frequently treated? What can I do now to reverse this? Can medicine possibly regulate my thyroid? Does this cause fatigue which the reason I asked for blood work??
