I'm concerned about my recent TFT test results at work. My TSH levels came back high, and I'm not sure what that means. Is it something I should be worried about? Are there steps I should take to get it back to a normal range? My T3 and T4 levels are fine, but does this mean I have a thyroid issue? I'd appreciate any advice you could give.

I'm a bit concerned because after taking Dulcoflex tablets, I've noticed that I'm urinating a lot more throughout the day and I'm also experiencing some weight loss. Could you help me figure out what's going on and suggest an alternative or a better approach?

I recommend you stop taking it. Instead, you can try using Senokot tablets. Take 1-2 tablets at bedtime as needed for constipation. Make sure to drink plenty of water throughout the day. If you continue to experience high urine output and weight loss, please consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation.
