My blood test report has shown some abnormal figures, but I neither consume alcohol nor smoke. What could be the possible cause of this? I have read that heavy workouts at the gym may also cause changes in liver enzymes. My LDH is 375 IU/L, and my TSH is 6.4 mIU/ml. Could you please clarify what this indicates? I am planning to repeat the test in a different lab before consulting a doctor. At present, I do not have any issues with my bowel movements, urine, or food intake. During this period, I was also taking Acutret 10 mg for 10 days, and the test was conducted while I was on this medication. Could this tablet have caused any side effects reflected in my report?

LDH can rise due to workouts or medications. Acutret and elevated TSH may indicate mild hypothyroidism. Consider repeating TSH.

Question

I had an ultrasound of my neck. My report says the left lobe is enlarged with a cystic lesion of size 20 x 23 mm having separation and echogenic content. The impression is a colloid cyst in the left lobe with an enlarged left thyroid lobe. What does this mean?

Question

My wife has been suffering from hypothyroidism for the past two months. Her TSH increased after taking medication for a month (50 mcg Eltroxine). The doctor has suggested increasing the dosage to 100 mcg for two months before doing another blood test. She has also been advised to follow a low glycemic diet. I want to get a second opinion?
