Cardiologist 's  Response
Hello!

Welcome and thank you for asking on HCM!

I understand your concern and would explain that your symptoms seem yo be related to a thyroid dysfunction from inflammation.

I recommend consulting with the endocrinologist for a careful physical examination, a thyroid gland scintigraphy and some blood lab tests :

-complete blood count
-PCR, sedimentation rate
-thyroid hormone levels
-blood electrolytes
-anti TPO antibodies levels, etc.


You should discuss with your doctor on the proper therapy based on the above tests results.

Besides, a hematologist consultation and further lab tests (blood ferrritine and hemosiderine levels, vitamine B12 levels, etc) are needed to examine better for hematologic disorders and for the proper therapy.

Hope to have been helpful!

Feel free to ask any other questions, whenever you need!

Greetings!

Dr. Iliri
