Is TSH Level Of 10 A Cause For Concern?

Hi, TSH of 10 or under 10 does not require any treatment.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
TSH of 10 or under 10 does not require any treatment. You have borderline Diabetes and Hypertension. Sounds to me like Metabolic syndrome. Are you overweight or is your abdominal girth more than half your height? You are an ideal candidate for strict lifestyle modification.
Only treatment you really require is Vitamin D substitution once a month and Telma 20. If you get loose motions after Telma 20, an alternative like a small dose of Ace inhibitor like Enalapril 2.5 mg should suffice. But please discuss with your doctor. Diet--no sugar, sweets, fried, refined flour, white rice, sweet fruits, bakery items. Plenty of greens--salads, vegetables, sprouts; Non sweet fruits, pulses, low fat Dairy, brown rice, whole wheat. Reach ideal body weight and waist circumference. Walk at least 5 Km a day.
Hope this has cleared your confusion.
Regards


your answers are really convincing. regarding sugar whether i can stop glysypage 500 . the problem which i am facing now is that my pressure is going up when sleeping i dont understand .
Hi, Uprise 60k a month is fine.
Detailed Answer:
Hi, Uprise 60k a month is fine. Taper your Thyronorm to 25 micrograms for a week, (half of 50), then 25 micrograms for a week (quarter), then stop. Like I said even if your TSH goes up to 10 it is fine. If your pressure is going up when sleeping get a 'Holter test' done. It will tell you about your 24 hour BP distribution and help your doctor to decide right medicine. Yes Vitamin D and BP medicine may be required lifelong, but with monitoring. Regarding Glyciphage, it is a good drug and if you are overweight, it may also help in that---regards


my next question is i am having total cholestrol 250 (LDL 165 and HDL 37 ) for the last 10 years i am checking total Cholestrol remains in the range between 223 and
250 and LDL 134 to 165. my doctor says to take Roseday 10 mg for two months and thereafter 5mg in the night with Cobat czl or i have to maintain dieting.
as per my friends if i take this i have to continue for life.i have no complain while climbing stairs etc.,
Doctor, what is your kind advise whether i have to take Roseday . i started taking one spoon flax seeds just 3 days.
Hi, I think like your doctor advised,
Detailed Answer:
Hi, I think like your doctor advised, take Roseday 10 for a month, 5 mg for a month, then 5 mg alternate days for a month, then twice a week for a month. After three months you may continue if it is still slightly raised or you can stop if normal. But meanwhile diet control and exercise should be continued. Regards

Hi, Great news! Yes bloating can be due to Glyciphage.
Detailed Answer:
Hi, Great news! Yes bloating can be due to Glyciphage. But in my experience this problem reduces after some time. You can take Glyciphage SR --there will be less bloating--regards
