I've been diagnosed with hypothyroidism and am struggling with the treatment. I've tried a few different brands of thyroid medication, but they all seem to give me headaches, make me gassy, burp a lot, and I just feel restless. It's really hard to deal with. Even when I try taking other supplements, I get the same symptoms. I've also noticed I can't drink tea or coffee or eat mutton anymore. My TSH level is at 150, and I've stopped taking the medication. What should I do?

I'm really concerned about my wife's health. She's been diagnosed with a Vitamin D deficiency at 8.5, and the doctor recommended Calcirol 60K once a week. I'm wondering if she could take D-Rise 60K capsules instead of the Calcirol powder. Also, if the powder is the better option, what would be the ideal time for her to take it? And can she take it with warm water? I'm eager to know.

yes you can take it ,it should be taken along with heavy meal or oily meals cause it increses absorption as it is a fat soluble vitamin

Both my fallopian tubes are blocked and I'm really confused about what to do next. Should I consider getting endoscopy surgery to clear the blockages or would it be better to go straight for IVF? I'm worried about the success rates and recovery time for each option.

With bilateral fallopian tube blockages, both endoscopic surgery and IVF (In Vitro Fertilization) are options, but IVF is often the more direct path to pregnancy. Endoscopic surgery, like tubal recanalization or salpingectomy, might be considered if there's a chance to repair the tubes, but success rates can vary depending on the cause and severity of the blockage. IVF bypasses the tubes entirely, making it a more reliable option for some, but it also has its own success rates and recovery time to consider.

I'm a bit confused about some medical stuff. So, in the context of a COVID test, what exactly does the target gene CT value mean? Like, if someone has a CT value of 17.5, is that considered low or high? Also, if a person has thyroid issues, do the medicines change if they get COVID?

The target gene CT value in a COVID-19 test represents the number of cycles needed to detect the virus's genetic material, with lower values (e.g., 17.5) indicating a higher viral load, while higher values suggest a lower viral load or potential false positive; regarding thyroid conditions, COVID-19 treatment does not typically involve thyroid medications, but underlying thyroid conditions may require adjustments to existing medications or additional supportive care.
