Mr. lybrate-user, Thanks for the query.
To find out whether there is any problem with thyroid gland, Thyroid Function Test has to be done. Based on TSH level it is possible to decide whether one has hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism. Symptoms depend upon what type of the problem is present. Thanks.

Hello, Thanks for the query.
When one is on treatment with adequate quantity of thyroxine, TSH is maintained around 3 to 4 mU/l and all the symptoms are in check. T4 & T3 levels are normal only because one is on treatment. The day one stops it, TSH will be affected and all the symptoms will be back. So treatment has to continue for lifetime. Thanks.
