Hello,
Thankyou for your asking inHCM

I read carefully your concers.
About your questation if Thyroid nodels casess fainting and tiredness???
In my opinion we know 300&more Hypothyroid symptoms.
One of them is fainting episode but not often.
Firs of all you need proffesional after fainting episode to investigate whether theres an underbing healthcare.
syncopoe is cased bye tempory reduction in blood flow to the brain .
You must to do:
-ECG
-Carotid sinus test
-Blood test for anemia
-Thyroid hormos.
You have TSH 49 for that you need to treatment with hormon replacment therapy.(levothyroxine) .
I need to know the level of T3 &T4 .
Are the nodels in your thyroid that cases fainting???I don;t think so.
We can say that fainting and tiredness are the problem from thyroid afeer your consult with cardiolog .
You need imediatelly chec up from cardiologes.
Hope that i was helphull with my opinian.Don;t hesitate asking me.
Kind regards
Dr Klodiana Poshi
