I've been prescribed Thyronorm 50 mg because my TSH level is 12.8, even though my T3 and T4 are normal. But I'm still experiencing body pain and weakness, and it's making me feel uneasy. On top of that, I've had throat pain for several days now and it hasn't gotten better. Do you have any advice on what I should do next?

View allI'm really worried about my wife who's 15 days pregnant. Her TSH level is at 4.59 and I'm not sure if that's normal during pregnancy. If she starts taking medicine for it, could there be any negative effects after the pregnancy? Could you please advise on what's best for her health?
Your wife's TSH level of 4.59 is slightly elevated, but during pregnancy, the normal TSH range is wider due to hormonal changes. For pregnant women, the normal TSH range is: First trimester: 0.3-4.5 mIUL, Second trimester: 0.5-4.6 mIUL, and Third trimester: 0.8-5.2 mIUL. However, some studies recommend that the upper limit for TSH during pregnancy should be 2.5 mIUL

I recently got my full body blood tests back, and while most results seem alright, my Vitamin D level is at 6 and Vitamin B12 is at 160. I don't really have the typical symptoms associated with these deficiencies, but I'm kind of concerned and want to address them. Any advice on what I should do?
For Vitamin D deficiency, you can consider taking Vitamin D supplements such as "Caltrate" or "Nature Made Vitamin D3". For Vitamin B12 deficiency, you can consider taking Vitamin B12 supplements such as "Nature Made Vitamin B12" or "Solgar Methylcobalamin". It's important to consult with a healthcare provider for proper dosage and duration of supplementation.

I'm a bit concerned because my vitamin D3 level is really low, at just 10. Ive started taking 60,000 IU every week to try and get it back up. Does this sound like a good plan to improve my levels? And if it works, what kind of change should I expect in my vitamin D3 levels after using it for 8 weeks?
Yes definitely there will be result,contine the same and consume calcium rich food for a better result.
