Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have Thyroid detected in 2010. I started with 25mg Thyroxine which was increased to 50mg 2years back. In July I rechecked TSH level and it was 21. for past 2years I am feeling slight pain in knee while steping down the steers. Also have some back pain
considering the thyroid problems with knee and back pain, screening for an auto immune condition is suggestible. A chronic inflammation of connective tissue is suspected. I suggested Consulating a rheumatologist can be helpful.
