I'm a bit concerned after getting my package test results from Thyrocare. It seems like my lipoprotein and C-reactive protein levels are pretty high, and my CBC impression mentioned something about being hypochromic. I'm not really sure who I should reach out to for guidance on this. Could you point me in the right direction?

You should consult a General Physician for further evaluation and management of your high lipoprotein and C-reactive protein levels, as well as the hypochromic impression on your CBC. For high lipoprotein levels, you may be prescribed statins like Atorvastatin (10-20 mg) to lower cholesterol levels. For high C-reactive protein levels, you may be prescribed NSAIDs like Ibuprofen (400-800 mg) to reduce inflammation. For hypochromic CBC findings, you may be prescribed iron supplements like Ferrous Sulfate (325 mg) to treat iron deficiency anemia.

I'm a 51-year-old with a weight of 62 kg, and I've been on 88 mcg of medication a day for hypothyroidism for the past 6 months. I just got my thyroid profile results, and they show my T3 is 0.98, T4 is 7.93, and TSH is 12.58. What should I do now?

-It seems your TSH level is still higher than the normal range, indicating that your thyroid may not be fully optimized with the current dosage of 88 mcg. I recommend discussing with your doctor about adjusting your medication or exploring other treatment
