Hello, Thanks for the query. Treatment with antithyroid drugs is usually given over 18 to 24 months. If TSH level returns to normal then treatment is discontinued. In two months time nothing can be judged. It takes much longer time to return to full normality. Do not stop the treatment on your own. There are no special foods required. Just take normal healthy diet. It is necessary to do regular strength building exercise for weight gain. Add green leafy vegetables, salads and fruits to the diet. If needed take additional proteins. Thanks.

Do not worry, let her body slowly accommodate and improve on its own. Let her concentrate on eating a healthy and balanced diet. Avoid all types of junk food/processed and packaged food and beverages. Have more of natural ( unpolished food ) and also seasonal fruits and vegetables. Being active ( do some exercise or do some yoga every day ) will help in rejuvenation of the mind and body. Please revert after 1-2 months for further evaluation.
