Brief Answer:
Get done thyroid function test and hemoglobin estimation.

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your follow up question on HCM.
I can understand your concern.
In my opinion, you should definitely get done
1. Complete blood count to rule out anemia.
2. Thyroid function test to rule out thyroid diseases like hypothyroidism.
3. Vitamin b12 level.
Anemia, hypothyroidism and vitamin b 12 deficiency can cause similar symptoms.
And these are treatable conditions.
So better to consult doctor and get done these blood reports.
Hope I have solved your query.
I will be happy to help you further.
Wish you good health. Thanks.

Brief Answer:
Hypothyroidism is low levels of thyroid hormone.

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your follow up question on HCM.
I can understand your concern.
Hypothyroidism is disease related to thyroid gland.
Thyroid gland is situated in the neck.
It secrets active hormones like T3 and T4.
These hormones act on the body and manifest their actions.
If these hormones are decreased in the body, this condition is known as hypothyroidism.
If they are raised than it is known as hyperthyroidism.
Causes of hypothyroidism are
1. Iodine deficiency
2. Familial
3. Congenital
4. Radiation exposure.
5. Viral infection causing hashimoto 's thyroiditis.
So please let me know if you have any of these risk factors.
I will be happy to help you further.
Wish you good health. Thanks.
