Anti thyroid antibodies>1300
Dear sir/Madam, two weeks back I got giddiness followed by abnormal behaviour for two hours. I was hospitalised and was given sedative to sleep at that time.they have conducted MRI,CT,vegg scans and everything is normal. But the tsh level is 6.9 and antithyroid antibodies are >1300. My HbA1c:7.1.
Doctors suggested Wysolone (10 mg X 3 tablets) for one week, (10 mgX2tablets) for next week and one tablet for the third week. They told it is Hashimotos decease. But with steroids diabetic levels will get increase, they told me. Please suggest me do I need to take steroids for the antithyroid antibodies.present I am taking thyroxine 25 mg only.
Thanks & regards,
Srinivas.
