Question

I'm experiencing some irritation in my throat, and I just got my thyroid levels checked. It turns out my TSH is really high, around 1016, but my T3 and T4 levels are normal. I'm not sure what this could mean. Can you tell me what this condition is and what kind of treatment I should consider?

Question

I was diagnosed with thyroid issues back in 2008, and my TSH level was 5.2. Initially, I was on 75 mcg of thyronorm for a year, and then my TSH level dropped to 3.1, so my doctor changed my dose to 50 mcg. I've been taking that ever since. I recently got my TSH checked again, and it's now 2.39. My doctor suggested I stick with the same dosage. Is that alright? I'm feeling tired all the time, and I'm wondering if it's the dosage or something else entirely. Can you give me some advice?
