Detected TSH 8.2
Good afternoon sir, My husband got his his blood test in Nov'17, and detected with thyroid, but he was not taking any medicines prescribed by the docter, as he was very sure that its normal and he can control his TSH level. But recently when he again got his blood test report after feeling fatigue and loss in appetite, the report showed that his TSH level is 8.2. The doctor has advised him to take medicine for lifetime. And he has prescribed a 10 mg tablet. My husband is still not sure that is it high level for his age and whether he should take medicine of 10 mg or not. Request you to kindly guide.

Please get his Thyroid ultrasonography scanning done. Some types of thyroid problems could turn cancerous too! This is not Diabetes or Hypertension that can be resolved by diet, exercise or meditation!
