Nilesh here. I have been suffering from hyperthyroidism for more than 2 years and am under treatment with Dr. Archana Juneja at Kokilaben Ambani Hospital. Despite treatment, my thyroid levels have not normalized. My latest report shows T3: 540.85, T4: 23.00, and TSH: less than 0.008. Please suggest what should be done next?

Values confirm persistent hyperthyroidism. You may need dose adjustment or alternate treatment like radioiodine or surgery if not responding to medication.

Question

My mom has had a lump in her neck for the past 20 years. She does not have any problems with the lump. We showed it to 2 to 3 doctors before, but they said there was nothing to worry about. Yesterday we went to an ENT specialist, and he said that her thyroid is swollen. He prescribed several tests. I am attaching the reports. Please tell me what they mean?

Question

Hi, I have noticed bald patches on my beard and scalp. I consulted a doctor, and they advised me to do blood tests for Fasting Glucose, TSH, and Serum Anti TPO. I have done the tests, and the results are, Fasting Glucose is 93, TSH is 6.039, and Anti TPO is greater than 1300. After getting the report, I did not get a chance to consult the doctor again. I searched on the Internet and found that it may be related to thyroid problems.
