Recently I was diagnosed with thyroid problem. In my first test, my TSH result was 15.5. My doctor suggested to use 100 mg daily and after 1 and half month I used to start 50 mg.

Your diagnosis is Hypo-hyperthyroid. Let me first explain what is Hypo-hyperthyroid. Generally a person gets either hypo thyroid or hyper thyroid, but some patients actually have such antibodies that puts the thyroid into a situation of push-pull, where the thyroid cycles up and down through hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism. Some common symptoms are:
- Dizziness
- Substantial weight loss
- Panic attacks
You have taken the thyroid medicines for a long time and the levels are now in control hence you can stop it. However the thyroid now has tipped over to the hyperthyroid side and hence the symptoms you are facing. Discontinuation of the medicine by itself should bring back your normal thyroid balance and as discussed you must perform a repeat thyroid function test after 4 weeks of stopping the medicine.
Consult again if problem persists. Advised to stop current medicine and take the following medicines for the dizziness:
Tab. Vertin 8mg - 1-0-0 for 1 month
