Question 1

I am experiencing psoriasis with itching on my face, legs, and forehead. I have diabetes and high blood pressure, and I am taking medications for both. I am also on thyroid medication. Please advise on management.

Question 2

I am 23 years old and suffering from hypothyroidism. I often feel cold at normal temperatures, feel lazy, have thinning hair, and tend to forget things. I understand these are symptoms caused by low thyroid hormone production. My report shows a TSH of 456, whereas the normal range should be around 3 to 6. I have consulted a doctor and am taking prescribed medication.
My concerns are:
Can hypothyroidism be completely cured?
Will my hair and cognitive function (thinking/memory) return to normal once it is treated?

Question 3

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.

I recently got my thyroid checked for the first time. My report shows T4 slightly higher than the reference range by 0.1. Should I consult a doctor for this?

A slight increase in T4 may not be significant if TSH is normal. This could be temporary or due to lab variation. If no symptoms like palpitations, weight loss, or anxiety, no need to worry yet.
