Mr. lybrate-user, thanks for the query. I have seen the details mentioned. Since you are on levothyroxine 100 mcg per day, then it is unlikely that tsh would go up to 100 mu/l please tell me when was it checked? Plus what are the t3 & t4 values? Plus what other symptoms of hypothyroidism do you have? Weight loss usually does not occur in hypothyroidism. Please check your blood glucose also. If not checked, it is better to check fasting, pp and hba1c%. Then come back with all the necessary details, preferably in a private conversation. Because in this communication we are supposed to give only general guidelines, no drugs can be prescribed. Or else please consult your local physician and follow the advice. Ideally tsh should remain around 3 to 4 mu/l. When all the symptoms are in check. I hope you understand the situation and take necessary actions. Thanks.
