What Do The Following Test Reports Indicate?
Hi, I am 39 years old lady. I am having Thyroid for more than 8 years. I am currently taking NeoMercazole 5mg Tablets 3 timed a day. My recent report is: TSH: 6.73; T3: 83; T4: 5.9; FT3:2.4; FT4: 0.72. As TSH is high, please suggest me the recommended dose / other medicine.

Hi,
Based on the test reports you provided, your TSH level is higher than the normal range, indicating that your thyroid gland is underactive (hypothyroidism). The T3 and T4 levels are also slightly low, which is expected with high TSH levels.
The recommended dose of NeoMercazole or other medication depends on several factors, including your age, weight, overall health, and the severity of your hypothyroidism. It is best to consult with your doctor, who can assess your condition and adjust your medication accordingly.
In some cases, your doctor may recommend increasing the dose of NeoMercazole or switching to another medication, such as levothyroxine. Your doctor may also order additional tests, such as thyroid antibodies or a thyroid ultrasound, to determine the cause of your hypothyroidism.
It is important to take your medication as prescribed and follow up regularly with your doctor to monitor your thyroid function and adjust your treatment as needed.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Priyanka, General & Family Physician
