Why Do I Have Hard Goiter With Muscles Cramp And My Heart Palpitates?

Hi, i had a hard goiter almost as the size of a native chicken egg and i did got a thyroid panel and my TSH is normal and T4 but T3 is a little bit beyond the normal range. I feel becoming bigger and sometimes my muscles cramp and my heart palpitate. Is it ok to take MX3 capsule? Actually after i gone thyroid panel i did not gone to the doctor yet and i am only taking fruit juices as natural remedies for my thyroid problem.

Hello,
Welcome and thank you for asking on HCM!
The swelling of the thyroid gland you prescribed may be due to a thyroid nodule that doesn't affect the thyroid function.
If you were a patient in my clinic i would suggest to do an ultrasound of the thyroid gland and to confirm the presence of the nodule.
The diet and MX3 tablets do not affect the thyroid function and the nodule.
Thew cramps and the palpitations are not with thyroid origin.
So the next step would be the thyroid ultrasound and an ECG to see the cardiac rythm,meanwhile you have to stop drinking coffee and energy drinks.
Wish you good health.
Kind regards,
Dr.Mirjeta Guni
