TSH 48 is very high and can affect pregnancy. Start treatment immediately and consult your gynecologist and endocrinologist.

Take a Thyroid Profile (T3 T4 TSH) Test Test or Take a THYROID PEROXIDASE ANTIBODIES (ANTI MICROSOMAL ANTIBODIES) Test

Question

Sir, I did an echocardiography test four years ago. Sometimes I experience sudden fear, and if I run fast, my heartbeat becomes fast. I will attach the echo report. Please tell me about my report.

I am 23 years old, and my recent thyroid test results are: TSH: 4.826, T3: 3.26, T4: 1.02. Am I considered to have thyroid disorder? Should I change my diet? I am unable to eat rice and have to eat smaller meals.

Question

Sir, I have tested my T3 level and the report shows 2.28. Please advise what medication I should take. Regards, Chandni Agarwal.
