What Does My Endoscopy Report Indicate?
I have been suffering from hyperacidity Since may 2014. Medicines were given from time to time. I was ok till the course was over. Diet changes exercise etc hv helped but not completely.Endoscopy report normal.now i am feeling pricking sensation in my throat. I dont hv pain or cough and cold. I am also having mild hypothyroid for which i have been given thyronorm. Kindly suggest whats wrong with my throat and how long will it take for me to get cured of hyperacidity and hypothyrood

Dear Patient, for the hyperacidity you need to take some "ppi medication" like pantoprazole for at least several months. However it wont necessarily get cured by it, only reduced. After stopping the medication it may come back after a while. Same goes for the thyronorm. The Thyroid substitution is usually an ongoing therapy, and the right dosage should be tested by the "TSH" hormone and ft3 ft4 in the blood approx. every 6 months to reevaluate the right dosage. All the best and kind regards
