How Can Stomach Pain And Fatigue With Dizziness Be Treated?

Hi Dr. Topiwala, I am a 50 yo female that was previously dx with Hashimotos thyroiditis and I also have been dx with lymphocytic colitis. I currently have stomach pain and fatigue. My symptoms are not severe, but I do get dizzy and have some joint pain, hearing loss and in the past low D low K but I am not on meds now. I don t know if I should continue my D. I always show hashimotos antibody but usually t 3 is normal. I have never had a TRH test. I don t feel well but I try to keep a positive upbeat but I m tired. Thanks, pam

Hello,

Yes, you should continue the treatment with vitamin D supplements.

The hearing loss and dizziness are not related to a thyroid issue.

You should see an ENT to rule out Menier disease.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Hello,

TRH stimulation test is not indicated for hashimoto thyroiditis, continue treatment with levothyroxine and keep checking TSH every 6 months.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
