Hello,

At your age, it is all about curtailing drugs and maintaining a proper balance between which one you need to take and which one you can take in combination so that reduce numbers of medications.
1. Check your electrolyte.
2. Check FT4, TSH.
3.Lipid profile.

Consult an endocrinologist before that.


Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. BarunBijoy Bhattacharjee
