Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
Thyracs is a thyroid hormone supplement. Since you have had a lobectomy, your thyroid hormone levels in the body must be very low. These do need a life long replacement. But do not forget to monitor your hormone levels every 6 months to titrate the doses.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.

Hello
Thyrax is artificial thyroid hormone and given as replacement since you had total lobectomy done.
But your complaints are of hyperthyroidism which indicates that your dose of thyrax has to be lessened.
You must consult your doctor and get the revised prescription.
