Hi. I have not been taking any medicine for the last two days. Before that, I missed Thyroxine for a week, then took it for two days. Now, for the last two days, I have not taken anything. I have attached my report. Why does it look normal? Am I normal or should I be taking the medicine? Just to let you know, I got my test done 2 years back and the doctor suggested me to take 100 mg of Thyroxine. I will be visiting my doctor on Monday but thought of asking here.

You may be experiencing temporary normalization of thyroid levels, but consistency in thyroxine intake is essential. Stopping suddenly can cause relapse. Resume medicine and retest.

Question

Please check the attached reports, which include CBC, thyroid, and other test results. I tested COVID positive last month. I have been taking a 50 mg thyroid tablet for the past 5 years.

Question

I recently had a medical checkup and found out that I have thyroid issues. What steps should I take now regarding treatment, tests, and lifestyle changes?

My recent blood report shows that my TSH level is 12.04. I am a female, currently weighing 83 kg with a height of 6 feet 7 inches. My doctor has prescribed me 50 mcg of Thyronorm. However, a family member who is also a physician suggested that because my TSH level is quite high, I could take 125 mcg instead. I am confused about the correct dosage and would appreciate your guidance based on the report. Thank you.
