Hyperthyroidism Diet Questions

Dear lybrate-user,
when you are treated ffor hyperthyroidism with carbimazole there will be weight gain as you have noticed if your tsh level is normal then your doctor will gradually reduce the dose of carbimazole. The sneezing problem you have may be due to an allergy problem in the nasal passage and if it is troublesome you can take an antihistamine like levocet 5 mg when needed

Levothyroxine is given when the thyroid does not produce enough of this hormone on its own. Euthyrox treats hypothyroidism (low thyroid hormone). Euthyrox is also used to treat or prevent goiter (enlarged thyroid gland), which can be caused by hormone imbalances, radiation treatment, surgery, or cancer.

Hello, Thanks for the query.
I have seen the details mentioned. Only FT4 is not so much important. TSH has to come up also total T4 level also needs to be checked. The very fact that TSH is still 0.007mU/L, shows you have still a very strong hyperactivity of thyroid gland. TSH has to come up to 2 to 4 mU/L range.
