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?
