I was diagnosed with thyroid issues about a year ago. For the past two months, I have noticed swelling in my hands and feet. I also feel lethargic, always tired, and have difficulty concentrating. Could these symptoms be related to my thyroid, or might there be another cause? Please guide me

Swelling in hands/feet, tiredness, and poor concentration can be due to uncontrolled hypothyroidism. Thyroid imbalance can cause water retention and lethargy. It is important to do a Thyroid Profile (TSH, T3, T4) to check current levels. If thyroid levels are normal, other causes like low protein or kidney issues may need to be ruled out. Consult your doctor with the reports for medication adjustment.

I am suffering from erectile dysfunction (ED) and hypothyroidism, for which I am taking Thyronorm 50 mcg. I regularly go to the gym, follow a nutritious diet, and take whey protein (Livo Universal). Recently, I had a blood test, and the results showed TSH 5, globulin 3.8, RA factor active, low vitamin B12 and B9 levels, and high LDL. Please explain what these results mean.
