Infectious Diseases Specialist, Dr. Arun's Response
Hello dear,
Thank you for your contact to health care magic.
I read and understand your concern.
I am Dr Arun Tank answering your concern.
Your thyroid hormone production is increased as suggestive of sweating.
It is the nature of thyroid hormone to cause excessive secretion.
If hormone increases than it causes more sweating if it causes less secretion than it hormone level is down.
Your viral infection must be cured in the meanwhile that's why the hormone level us increasing.
I suggest you to again start with the carbimazole. It will lower down hormone and so your sweating will disappear.
I will be happy to answer your further concern on bit.ly/DrArun.
Thank you, Dr Arun Tank Infectious diseases specialist, HCM.
