Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
For the last year or so, I have had a terrible smell in my nose. I saw neurologist and ENT and had an endoscopy and had an MRI which was all normal. My TSH has gone up to the very limits of normal, this has never been the case with me before. I have been on levothyroxine for 13 years and never had my level so high before. I do not remember the number but it is right at the very end of normal. I also had an apicoectomy for tooth absess 4 weeks ago but still have this awful smell. I am still working with my endodontist but I have my thyroid in the back of my mind. My PCP will not even discuss my increase thyroid levels with me. My endodontist say that my tooth is healing and no infection, yet it took me almost a year to convince him of my problem tooth as it did not show on xray.
