I am having heaviness and gastric discomfort. I had a body checkup one year ago, which showed mild fatty liver, and everything else was fine. Now I feel heaviness along the right rib line extending to my back. I had pain while walking 15 days ago. I consulted a doctor, and he suggested some tests: Thyroid T3 2.34, T4 8.1, TSH 9.01, HBsAg negative, total cholesterol 217, triglycerides 207, HDL 42, LDL 115, VLDL 39, cholesterol/HDL ratio 4.5, LFT normal, total bilirubin 1, and urine routine examination normal. The doctor prescribed Hepataz tablet for 15 days and Roseday 20 mg for 3 months. Now my pain is gone, but I feel heaviness at night during sleep and after eating. Please advise?

Your symptoms are likely due to mild fatty liver combined with hypothyroidism (TSH 9.01) and borderline high cholesterol. This can lead to gastric heaviness, especially after meals or while lying down. Since the pain has improved with medication, continue Hepataz and Roseday as advised. Eat light, early dinners, avoid oily/spicy food, and walk daily. Recheck your TSH, liver, and cholesterol after 6 to 8 weeks.
Dr. Ezhilarasan Suggests...
Take a TSH Test (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone) Test or Take a LFT (Liver Function) Test Test

Hello I am a 25 year old female. I had my second child over a year ago and I noticed I was gaining more weight while feeling tired with high anxiety. What concerns me is that it has been over a year now and I drink over a gallon of water a day with a very healthy diet along with exercising three to four times a week but I have absolutely no weight loss only weight gain. My energy has diminished and it is now affecting my work. I have brittle hair that is slowly falling out along with body hair growth such as on the chin cheeks and breast. I also noticed my voice is much deeper with a slight rasp and it feels as if my throat is constantly swollen. I am not a smoker. I received blood work where only TSH and testosterone were tested. Based on my previous TSH results there seems to be an increase. Is there a reason to be concerned with my results? My TSH results are 1.740, 1.438, 2.063 and 2.856. Sex hormone binding globulin is 49 nmol per L. Testosterone is 18 ng per dL. Free testosterone is 2.4 pg per mL.
