Since you have not mentioned the duration of the treatment (how long the drug is being taken) or current TSH level, plus whether you have the symptoms of the disease, it is difficult to give any opinion. Thanks.

All the symptoms mentioned are seen in hyperthyroidism. The treatment needs to be taken for 18 to 24 months. In ...more
