Hi ladies,
I’ve just started on Thyrozol 5mg per day. I’ve not seen an endocrinologist since my surgery in 2012. Could you advise if any of you ladies put on weight after taking this med? Even if you start cutting down on your calories and workout more often than usual?

Thank you 🙂 look forward to hearing from you

Hi! Is this a switch from another medication? Will you share if it is because of your T4 or TSH numbers changing? If it is not convenient to share her, can PM?

Is this a symptom of thyroid disorder?

Jennifer:
:thankyou: :thankyou:


There is another concern- difficulty in falling asleep, unable to sleep through the night occasionally, feeling sweaty after eating a warm meal, more susceptible to coldness- suggestive of peri menopause. The doctor has ordered an extra blood test for estrogen levels at the next blood test. In the meanwhile, she prescribed two supplements to aid sleep quality.
update on my sleeping pattern:
the prescribed supplements did not help with easing into sleep nor sustaining my sleep throughout the night.

Luckily I managed to break the vicious cycle naturally by incorporating stationary bike exercising during the day.

I become more energetic during ghe day too :rahrah:

I had been experiencing foot pain and plantar fasciitis. I was desperate to find a shoe that could get me through a day of walking without pain. Well I found it, the Chicane not only gives me the foot support and pain relief I needed; they are also a good looking shoe that can be paired with many different outfits. The Chicanes took me about three weeks to wear in so that they were comfortable enough to wear on a 4-8 mile walk.

Just received the latest blood test results: all indices within healthy range.

Medicine dosage to cut down to 2.5mg, once a week, for 2 months.
Then totally off medicine for next 2 months.
Next blood test n review 4 months later, which is August.
glad to know you are doing well.

I am not prescribed camazol, so I can't advise.
You should call the clinic n seek clarification.

Did any of you also suffer hair loss? I read too that hair thinning and loss is a common problem link to thyroid disorder. Did your endo also order for test to be done to check. It will be too late by the time hair lost occur and is detected(would means it is quite serious for it to be noticeable). Any one has any experience on this? The Eyes and all the experience is already bad enough and to top it up with hair.... :imdrowning:

Yes i suffered fr on and off hair loss. More severe when i m stress. My endocrinologist didn't suggest me to do further test. My situation improved when i hv homecooked food since then. I oso eat more vegetables n fruits n meats. I used to eat little meats. I think lifestyle n diet r impt to maintain right hormone

Is the waiting time for all hospital this Long? Ktph was 4 months. I was on camazol for 6 months. First few months wasn't regular because I kept forgetting to take medication and the timing was always different. My tsh went from 0.013 to 8.5! So from hyper became hypo? Wondering is it because I did not stop the med for a day prior to the test. I don't recall being told on this but I read it here. My next appointment is another 4 months... wondering if I should stop the medication. I read also that a person can suffer from both hyper and hypo, it will bounce in btw. Medication also can cause one to become hypo from hyper. For me, I suffered from grave disease(glaring eyes) before my thyroid reading became abnormal. My eyes has since recovered, I think it may return but I hope not. From my understanding selenium was to help with thyroid and eyes.

I was first diagnosed to have abnormal thyroid readings when I went for the regular blood test at a GP clinic. The GP wrote a referral letter to NUH. My appointment at NUH was 4 months wait. I did not wait for 4 months, went direct to a private practice endocrinologist recommended by a ksp member.

I once went from hyper to hypo.

It is important to remember to take the medicine daily at the correct dosage. This way, your next blood test results is more accurate n the doctor can adjust the next dosage.
