Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you for asking!
I read your query and would like to help you with my advises.

1. First of all in order to help you get rid of chest discomfort, I would like to check by my self all your cardiac examinations reports (including cardiac echo, Holter monitoring and stress test). This will be of help in giving you accurate recommendation about best treatment option and right preparation doses. Can you upload the requested tests reports for me?

2. If all the above mentioned tests are normal and you have only premature ventricular complexes you shouldn't worry about them. As long as you have a normal functioning heart (normal EF on cardiac echo) with negative stress test then you shouldn't worry about any life threatening (or other) cardiac complications.

3. Only if all the other cardiac examinations will be normal, than your symptoms most likely are related to thyroid imbalance. Although your TSH are normal, thyronorm may be responsible for premature ventricular complexes and chest discomfort.

I'm waiting for the requested data.
Wish you health!

Brief Answer:
Following advice.

Detailed Answer:
Hi back,

Thyronorm is a hormonal product and is the treatment of choice for hypothyroid.

However, there are some medical hormonal alternatives for it. Some of them are:
- Lethyrox 50 mcg
- Thyrox 50 mcg
- Thyroup 50 mcg

Moreover, I would recommend to add synthroide supplements. This will help to stabilize the levels of thyroid hormones by reducing the dose of Thyronorm.

However, you should discuss this with your endocrinologist.

Wish you health!
Dr. Shehu
