Suggest Treatment For Redness In Eyes And TB While On Thyroid Treatment
My Mom is about 55 years old. She is undergoing thyroid treatment for more than 4 years now. She was administered a treatment to reduce bone corrosion, which was told due to thyroid. Her eyes developed redness few days ago and thyroid doctor had advised to check an opthalmalogist. He redirected us to check with a cordialogist. She is now been told that she has TB.
