hi puneet,

It takes 4-6 weeks to get every thing normal . However you may

also want to have your Complete blood count test done to check if there

is some other infection . Normally high ESR in the blood test and high

lymphocytes count reflects an infection and requires specific

antibiotics etc for that.

You did not say whether your doctor gave you medication based on the

test results. If your digestive problems are due to hypoT, you should

get relief fairly quickly with the medication, although it may not last

until your dosage is fine tuned. This sounds as if something else is

going on.

I found that sugar especially aggravated gas and indigestion. You

may try avoiding it and see how you feel.

Hello,

Have you checked into Candida? (a yeast overgrowth in the intestine)

Speaking from experience...of course ...I had the same problem for

a few months. I researched online and came across candida. I took

yeast fighter pills for about a week and haven't seen heartburn,

bloated belly, upset stomach, re-occuring yeast infections or dry

mouth since. I used to have constant heartburn and even was on

prevacid...now I don't take anything except an occasional yeast pill

when I feel bloated or have heartburn. I sympathize with you, it

took me months to figure out what was going on. Doctors don't help,

they always think you full of it. There was a lot of info online, I

did the " spit " test and I concluded that candida was causing my

discomfort. It may be worth checking into. I wish someone would

have told me

My wife had three different doctors, one a specialist, tell her that the

stuff growing in her mouth was not thrush (candida). They finally sent

her to an oral surgeon last week who spotted it right off. I had been

telling her that was what it was every time it recurred for the last

three years, but every time she found a physician that said no.

I too have indegestion problems and I have started to take prilosec OTC and it

really helps me. I don't take it everyday, but once every third day. I don't

have any problems if I stick to that. I hope that helps. If you have bad

heartburn, drink a mixture of honey, apple cider vinegar and warm water.....it

gets it every time.

Hi B.R and Pankaj,

Thanks for your inputs, much aprreciated.

I read somewhere that taking thyroxine pill on empty stomach in the morning

makes it more effective.Is that true?? I take my pill after breakfast..should I

take it before eating anything?

I had been taking Omeprazole for a month..it helped with the burping but not

with the gas formation..then I was diagonsed with hypo and the doctor told me to

stop taking it.

I had a complete blood count done about a month back.It shows E.S.R at 11mm

(normal 05-10) and lymphocyte at 13% (norla 20-35).Is this abnormal?

regards

Puneet

Hi Puneet,

You did a grave mistake of taking the pill after breakfast.You must have

taken it immediately after brushing the teeth.Leave a gap of 15 to 30

minutes for your regular liquied diet(ie)coffee or tea.If you could have

followed the above procedure,your TSH value would have come down by this

time.

At least now onwards,you follow this.

Don't worry about the values of ESR and lymphocyte.The values will vary

according to the body condition.

Bye now.

puneet,

You should take the medicine in the morning empty stomuch and

should not take anything (even water) for atleast half an hour. Remember

that this is just a salt and thus can be dissolved easily in water. Your

blood counts looks normal so need not to worry about this. Don't keep

your stomuch empty for more than 2 hrs and take lots and lots of water

3+ lts per day and you should be fine.

pankaj

Hi pankaj,

Your tips are very useful.Please tell me whether coffee will aggrevate

hypo or reduce the intensity.The moment I take any liquid 30 minutes after

my thyroxine,I started feeling drowsy.The feeling is there for the past 5

months even before I started taking Thyroxin.

Tell me whether this will subside along with hypo.

Reply me urgently.

Dear punkaj,

S.O.S.

It is a distress call.

I am not able to sleep properly in the night.

Now I am suffering from sever gastroids for the past three days.I feel

nausea,severe pain in the abdominal area and lot of gas release as soon as

eat.Are they the sysmptoms of Hypo-T.

Can the Thyroxin tablet create gastroids?I am taking 50 mcg thyroxin for

the past 24 days.As soon as I start taking my appetite started

increasing.I was getting hungry every three hours even during night

hours.I was taking something or other to quench the hungry.

Now the hungry has turned towards ulcer complaint.Now as soon as I take

any thing,I suffer a severe stomach pain followed by gas release.

I am not able taste even tea or coffee.My vertigo problem is in the

increasing trend.

My TSH was 6.2. only and T3 and T4 are well within the limit only.Our lab

result says TSH should be between 0.4 and 4.0

Please reply me urgently.

Rest of the details are down below.

Hi Puneet,

You were complaining gastroids some time back.Are you O.K. after taking

your meds as soon as you got up.Tell me your present status.

I have completed five weeks of medicine and now I will be meeting my endo

by the week end for further course of medicine.

My problem is vertigo when I am hungry and drowsi when my stomach is

full.There is no imrpovement in my status.I am also getting an equal

problem of gastroids like you.I am taking seperate medicines for that.In

addition to that I am having joint pain in my knees.

At present I am taking 50mcg of Thyroxin for the TSH of 6.2.

I am getting hungry every three hours(At 4.00 a.m. I feel hungry every

day)Because of this,I am forced to go bed before 10.00.p.m.

B.R.

[Guest guest]

Hi BR,

I'm afraid my gastroid problem is still there.Doctor has prescibed Normaxin

for the same and my endo has asked me to take Thyrox 25 (T3) along with Eltroxin

100 mcg (T4).

I had a blood test done and my TSH was 9.2,T3 was in normal range and T4

slightly below normal.However,I still feel weak and get dizzy on getting up.So

my condition is not so good.

I've read somewhere that Hypo's get inner ear infection because of low T3.Your

vertigo and dizzines could be because of this.You might ask your endo to

prescibe a test to rule out ear infection.

I'm also trying some home remedies for gastro problem.Mint sauce is very good

for the same.Also some mint juice with a spoon of honey is said to be useful.

Hi Puneet,

Thanks for exchanging your views.However I will be telling your views also

to the Endo.But I was told Eltroxin and Thyronorm(Thyroxin) are the same

and they are meant for T4 only.The medicine your are telling(Thyrox) is

the same as Thyronorm(thyroxin)? or is it a different one.

But my T3 and T4 are well within the range.I have checked many times my

ears with many ENTs and every ENT has told me that my ears are normal.I

have taken audiometry tests and Ct scna for temporal bone.My vertigo

increases when I am inside A/C. room.Have you got any such experience?

Let us continue our communications so that more informqations will come out.

Please reply.

Hi Puneet,

Could you be hypoglycemic? This could explain the dizziness and sleepiness

after eating, and the need to eat often. I am being treated for my hypo

symptoms okay but I get these spells as well. Check your blood sugars, and

be aware of what you have eaten before you get the symptoms of dizziness or

drowsiness.

Remember of course, no food or medication containing iron or calcium in any

form till at least four hours after taking your hypo meds. Both things

interfere with absorption. You might want to try an enzyme formula before

you eat any meal. They stop you bloating and help break down fats etc. more

efficiently. Check the ingredients in your other meds.

Hi Puneet,

I am yet to hear from you regarding the difference between Thyrox 25(T3)

and Eltroxin(T4).Is the thyrox is the same as Thronorm?

My recent report says I am normal.My endo has declared I have regained

normalcy though I feel I am not.My reports are as

follows:TSH:2.71(RANGE:0.4- 4.0)T3:77.9(RANGE:84 - 172) T4:9.53(4.5 -

12.5)My endo says I have to continue with my THYRONORM 50 mcg(SYNTHETIC

THYROXIN FOR T4).for my vertigo,he says,I have to consult ENT.Of,course I

did some of the tests with ENT but they were alll negetive.I am yet to do

some more tests.

Please reply me immediately.

Hi BR,

I'm not sure on the similarity between thyrox and thyronorm.Difference

between thyrox 25 and Eltroxin is that one is the source for T3 and other for

T4.

Good to hear your tests are normal.

Hi Puneet,

Yesterday I consulted a Doctor who clarified as follows:It is is enough if

you test for free T4,because The synthetic thyroxin which we are taking

orally,will get itself converted to T2,then T3 and finally stable

T4.Hence what we are checking is free T4 which is the reminiscent that

remains in the blood.Hence normally any doctor will ask for testing T4 and

TSH only.

But my vertigo problem in the morning is still prevailing and the

drowziness after my breakfast is also praviling.Are you having any such

problem?Please reply me.

HI BR,

Do you have a sugar problem of some kind? Do you eat some sort of protein the

night before? The symptoms you are talking about reminds me of such.

Hi BR,

It is true that the T4 is converted into T3.However,it is important that

your T3 levels be normal as it is T3 which works at the cellular lever.Hence

most of the time all three i.e T3,T4 and TSH are tested.

Yes,I also feel drowsy and dizzines.Day before yestreday I got up from my bed

and collapsed!

I also feel constantly fatigued and find it hard to move about freely and do

work.So you see I'm enjoying life to the full and having lot of fun!!

Jokes apart,this disease is taking its toll on me.How about you?
