I've been noticing that I'm sighing a lot, like every 5 to 10 minutes I'm taking a deep breath. Occasionally I can't seem to get a full deep breath. This started about 4 days ago and it's got me a bit worried. I don't have any chest pain, and my normal breathing is fine. Do you think this could be an allergy thing, something with my lungs, or maybe even my heart? I'm also yawning frequently. For context, I weigh 80 kg and I'm 169 cm tall. I have hypothyroidism and I'm on 25 mcg of thyronorm. Could any of this be linked?

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.

That could be a case of Hypothyroidism,visit physician or endocrinologist for evaluation and appropriate management.

Can you get pregnant after thyroidectomy?

Yes, it is definetly possible to get pregnant after thyroidectomy but you may face some challenges due to secondary hypothyroidism post surgery. A study published in August 2015 in the "Journal of Pregnancy" found that women with hypothyroidism were less likely to become pregnant and more likely to take longer to become pregnant than women without the condition. You need to consult a doctor and take treatment accordingly.
