Having weakness and balance issues

2020-06-03 09:49:46
I am experiencing balance issues when walk, stand and sitring without support from past 3 months. Is this thyroid issue or something else? I am taking thyroid medication for my autoimmune hypothyroidism from past 6 years but never faced such issues. Is there any deficiency in my body?

Hello mam. Dr Arpit here. Balance issues are usually caused by neuropathy or cerebellar ( a part of brain situated on back side ). However a detailed evaluation is required for solving your problem. Thyroid problems can cause balance issues but it may or may not be related in your case.

Please consult a neurologist
