increased dose for hyperthyearoidism end up causing hypothyearoidism what to do
hello I just read your query and from what you mentioned it appears you had hyperthyearoidism which was treated with radioactive iodine and now you are hypothyearoid well it is perfectly normal phenomena after radioactive iodine ablation of the thyearoid gland we usually expect patients to be hypothyearoid in your case it just took so long to develop you should have gotten your thyearoid function test done at that time but nonetheless your dose has been reduced so it is perfectly fine you feel tired because of the excess 50 mug which you had been taking until now anyways give it some time and it will settle down no it is not going to be dangerous just regularly do your thyearoid function test every three months until it stabilizes I hope this helps
hello doctor I am a 52 year old female I have an underactive thyearoid condition I had nuclear medicine a few years ago and had been going for regular checkups but recently due to some reasons my ash level had increased so I was given a dosage of 150 mug of thyearonorm my check up was due four months but due to some circumstances I could not go and I went two months late the doctor told me I had an overdose of it so he asked me to continue only with 100 mug I was wondering if I would feel better if I skip the medicines for two days because it is making me feel tired a lot and weak too
