I have been treating thyroid for many years, but for the last few months, it has not been well controlled. My medicine dose was recently increased as per my doctor advice. However, I am experiencing mild chest tightness and discomfort most of the time, with no other symptoms.

Uncontrolled thyroid (especially hypothyroidism) can cause muscle tightness, chest discomfort, or anxiety like symptoms. If the chest discomfort is mild and not accompanied by pain, breathlessness, or dizziness, it may be thyroid or muscular related. If persistent, get heart and thyroid levels re evaluated. Make sure you are taking thyroid medicine correctly (empty stomach, same time daily).

Question

I am suffering from throat ache in a particular position and I have done a neck USG. I am attaching my report. I am feeling worried about this issue.

My father had a heart attack in April and underwent angioplasty, during which one stent was placed. At the time of discharge, his ejection fraction was 30 percent. After three months, his blood test results showed the following, TSH is 9.23, Iron is 52.9, Uric Acid is 9.09, HDL (Direct) is 37, Triglycerides is 204, VLDL is 40.8, Serum Albumin/Globulin Ratio is 2.12, and Serum Globulin is 2.19. The report also mentioned urobilinogen, but the value was not provided.

Question

I took my last medication on 3rd July. After 11 days, my period has not started. I checked with a pregnancy test twice, and both were negative. What should I do next, and how many more days should I wait?
