I had digestive disorders and low thyroid due to psycho and anxiety issues. After treatment, my cognition and concentration have still not fully recovered. I am preparing for railway exams and have only 4 months left. Can you please suggest how to improve my memory and concentration?

Low thyroid and past anxiety can affect concentration and cognition. For exam preparation, maintain consistent sleep, hydration, balanced diet, and daily exercise. Practice focused study sessions with breaks. Meditation or deep breathing can help reduce anxiety and improve focus. Do Thyroid Profile (TSH, T3, T4), Vitamin B12, and Vitamin D tests to check deficiencies that can affect memory and concentration, and correct them under medical guidance.

Hello, I recently had my thyroid tested and I would like to know if my report is normal. I have been experiencing some symptoms that make me suspect hyperthyroidism, but I am not sure. Could you please help me interpret my results?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I have been suffering from a thyroid problem. Yesterday, my test report showed T3 131, T4 7.7, and TSH 4.69. Can you please suggest the status of my thyroid?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

Please check the attached reports, which include CBC, thyroid, and other test results. I tested COVID positive last month. I have been taking a 50 mg thyroid tablet for the past 5 years.
