Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I am 29 years old and 60 kg, 5.6 feet tall and working man. According to the first time test report, my TSH is 89.47 and HB is 11.1. Currently, I am feeling too much tiredness, weakness, and indigestion. I feel this from last five months but I only cured indigestion. Currently, my doctor recommended Thyrox 100 and some Folic acids. Now, I am too much weak and feeling tired. Please help me.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I have gone through your query. As your TSH (thyroid stimulating hormone) level is high, your symptoms could be due to this. Hypothyroidism can cause a lot of symptoms like weakness, easy fatigability, weight gain, loss of concentration, etc. I advise you to continue your medications. Please get your vitamin B12 levels, vitamin D3 and serum calcium, anti-TPO (thyroid peroxidase) antibodies, ultrasound of neck done. Also, you can take some multivitamin supplements. Symptoms due to hypothyroidism can persist for a few days even after starting medication. Take a healthy balanced diet, more fruits. Go for a daily brisk walk for at least half an hour. Do regular exercises.
