Hello,
Thank you for asking on HCM!
I can understand your concern. There are some treatment options of overactive thyroid.
First the hormonal level should be well controlled with carbimazol. The dose you are taking now is too large if you are underactive. You should lower the dose regarding to the hormonal results.
The permanent options of treatment are two: Surgical remove or Radioiodine treatment.
