my mother has a current TSH Level of 5.83. She has been having thynorm 25 for the last one year... surprsingly her TSH Levels have jumped 250% on the last one year. recently she has started copmplaining of EXTREME WEAKNESS, BREATHLESSNESS, INABILITY TO WALK & MUSCLE /JOINT PAIN. tho i had her TSH Checked less than a month ago, should i have it checked again ???? doc says she is suffering from extreme mental stress as i am away in the middle east and she is alone in India. friends do take care of her but i also feel its her mental anxiety that is causing these symptoms of hypothyroid to flare up, inspite of the medicine.

Bina,

mcg stands for microgram, it is smaller than a milligram (mg), it is only 1/1,000 of it, so just a fraction of it. It is also equal to 1/1,000,000 of a gram.


You can read for yourself here:

There are a few medications that are measured in micrograms, rather than milligrams, because they are very powerful and require only a very small amount to be effective.

Hope this helps.

Are there any other questions?

Amina, as I said, weight gain is a normal side effect, it can happen because of your Thyroid condition, as well as from the medication itself.

Have you spoken to your doctor about it?

The same applies to the weakness you are feeling. It could be cause by both and if it is a problem you should speak to your doctor.


As to when to take the medication, what has your pharmacist advised?
