Is It A Serious Concern When Test Reports Are Indicative Of Hyperthyroidism?
Question: Dear Doctor, Can you please check the reports of my wife. The attached reports. Please advise / explain and how can we resolve these issues. Thanks.
Brief Answer:
Hyperthyroidism
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Your test results show that you are suffering from hyperthyroidism.. which can be treated by radioactive iodine doses prescribed by your doctor. Usually, one or two doses of radioactive iodine are enough to kill the overactive thyroid cells.
However, follow up on the levels of T3 and T4 is required post-treatment as it might cause hypothyroidism which will need replacement thyroid hormone treatment.
Your test results also show a slight increase in hemoglobin level and a slight decrease in creatine level which can be caused by dehydration, so please make sure you are adequately hydrated with at least eight cups of water daily.
I hope you'll find this helpful. Feel free to ask further.
