I have a thyroid condition and am taking medication, which keeps it under control. Lately, I have been experiencing frequent memory problems and difficulty recalling things or speaking clearly. This is affecting me both at work and personally. Could this be related to my thyroid, or should I consult a specialist? Please guide me.

Memory issues may be thyroid/stress/vitamin related. Recheck thyroid even if on control. Do TSH, T3, T4, Vitamin B12, Vitamin D tests. Sleep well, hydrate, try mindfulness. See neurologist if it persists.

Namaste sir, my name is Uma. I am using Thyiox 62.5 MCG since 6 months. Yesterday I did a thyroid test. Please see my report and suggest whether to use the same dose or make any changes?
