I recently had the following test results Anti TPO: 110 TSH: 6.80 Total T3: 114 Total T4: 8.4 HbA1c: 6.2 Total cholesterol: 229 Average heart rate: 70 to 86 (from pedometer band) Lipoprotein: 9.86 High sensitive C reactive protein (hsCRP): 14.86 Previously, my CRP test before vaccination was non reactive. I received my first vaccine dose in August, after which a lymph node near my right breast swelled, which has now reduced by 70 percent. My second dose was on November 18, and the above test was done yesterday. Until last year, my cholesterol and sugar levels were normal, but they became borderline with my thyroid issues and have not improved. Am I at any risk due to these results, and what steps should I take to manage them?

Your thyroid reports show mild hypothyroidism with anti TPO positivity, and your HbA1c and cholesterol are borderline high, which can happen with thyroid issues. The raised CRP may be due to inflammation, possibly related to the recent vaccine or other minor infections, especially since your lymph node has reduced. Continue monitoring your thyroid and cholesterol, maintain a healthy diet and regular activity, and repeat your thyroid profile, HbA1c, lipid profile, and CRP after 3 months to track progress. Discuss these findings with your doctor for further personalized management.

My wife is currently taking Thyronorm 75 mcg. Before conceiving, her TSH level was 3. Now, at 5 weeks pregnant, her latest TSH level is 4.73. The reference range for TSH in the first trimester is below 4.5. Could you please advise if this level is a concern and if any changes to her medication or treatment are needed?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

My hypothyroidism has been detected since last 6 years and I have been taking 75 mcg fixed dose of Thyronorm tablet with regular blood tests and check ups. Thankfully I have been able to maintain my TSH level in normal range for many years. But yesterday I got my report and my TSH level is 6.26 uIU per ml. I have been taking regular medicines. Is there anything to worry? What can I do to prevent TSH from increasing?
