I had consulted a skin specialist for pimples on my face. She suggested I go for a blood check and a scan. My report shows TSH level 5.73 and ASM level 5.81. What should I do to reduce my TSH level.

TSH is mildly elevated. For pregnancy planning, aim to bring TSH below 2.5. Your doctor may suggest a low dose of thyroid medicine. ASM is a liver enzyme; mildly raised value can occur with stress, diet, or minor liver inflammation.

I have been experiencing palpitations, with my heartbeat becoming very fast. During these episodes, my body shakes, and I have severe neck pain. I am sending my report. Please advise me.

I have extremely low TSH hormone. Does it mean that I have a thyroid disease? I have heard that it is not treatable and causes a lot of weight gain. Is it true in my case? For reference, I am attaching relevant details from my report. Thyroid profile: T3 125, T4 8.4, TSH 0.08.

Please check the results and suggest. I have attached my test report. My doctor has asked me to take Thyrox and Glycomate every day?
