My mother has been a hypothyroidism patient for the past 5 years. Her latest test report from Thyrocare shows a very low TSH value, while T3 and T4 levels are within the normal range. Before consulting any specialist, I would like to understand the details of her case, confirm the diagnosis, and know if any additional tests or special investigations are required.

Low TSH with normal T3/T4 could mean over treatment. Check FT3, FT4, adjust thyroxine dose.

I had an ultrasound of my neck. My report says the left lobe is enlarged with a cystic lesion of size 20 x 23 mm having separation and echogenic content. The impression is a colloid cyst in the left lobe with an enlarged left thyroid lobe. What does this mean?

Hello, my aunt recovered from viral fever last week. She is not under any medication now. However, for the last 2 to 3 days, she has developed severe headache and nausea. On checking with a local physician, she was advised to do TSH, T3, and T4 tests. Previously, she was under medication for high TSH but stopped the medication a few months ago thinking everything was normal and feeling fine. The fresh test today shows TSH 18.77, T3 117, and T4 9.4. The reports indicate a high TSH level. She is worried and needs help.

Hi Sir, We recently did a thyroid test for my wife, who gave birth 5 months ago. The results are: T3: 2.96, T4: 0.54, TSH: 62. Is this normal after delivery, or should we start treatment? If treatment is started, will her thyroid levels come down to normal?
