About 1 1/2 Yrs Ago I Had A Severe Gall

Posted on Mon, 15 Oct 2018

Question: About 1 1/2 yrs ago I had a severe gall bladder attack. I thought it was a heart attack, so I went and had many tests done and my heart is fine. After that initial attack, I had severe lethargy for several weeks. I'd be fine for a few days, then lethargic again. I had the gall bladder removed 8 mos ago. I still have the lethargic days though. I do have thyroid issues and I'm working with my doctor to get those straightened out, but I would think that lethargy should be full time if it's because of a thyroid issue, right? Mine comes on suddenly, and usually goes away just as suddenly. Lasts 1-2 days. I just really need my energy back!

Cant be gall bladder or liver related issue

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for your query.

It cant be gall bladder or liver related issue.

I still consider the Thyroid hormone imbalance being the culprit.

What was your recent TSH value?
What is your present thyroid hormone dosage ?
Have you attained menopause ?
Do you have any bone pains?
Do you feel giddy or depressed ?

Waiting for your response,

Please share recent test reports if you have
