Hi, dear
I have gone through your question.
I can understand your concern.

Treatment of hypothyroidism is thyroid supplements. Drugs like synthroid or eltroxin are useful to treat hypothyroidism. But you should go for T3, T4 & TSH level. Then start treatment accordingly.

Thyroid is not a reason for failure in urine test. Avoid marijuana.

Hope I have answered your question. If you have any doubts then feel free to ask me. I will be happy to answer.
Thanks for using health care magic.
Wish you a very good health.
