Low TSH - Dizziness
Currently taking Thyronorm 75 mcg since three months. Since a week having dizzy feeling with fast heart beats.
Checked TSH today and is 0.70
( Lab range 0.34 to 5.5 )
Blood pressure is 125/95. Taking Telvas AM 40 for that.
Can I take Telvas 40 alone and skip Amlodipine for 15 days and check bp. Having foot swelling and pain.
Also do I need to reduce Thyroxine dose.
Due to lockdown unable to visit the doctor. Expecting kind advice.

Decrease in TSH
I have been diagnosed with hypothyroidism last June 2020, with TSH value 16.7, was put on Thyronorm 50 mcg, checked again in November with TSH value 19.3. I was Covid positive on April 26, mild symptoms, home quarantined, was put on Medrol 8 mg twice daily for 5 days, then 4 mg twice daily for another 5 days, then stopped. Recovered. On May 14, 2021, checked TSH, it was 8.9. Does Medrol played any role in decreasing value of TSH?

Sugar level going down
My mother has been taking following medicines for controlling diabetes
Tripride 2 and Tenepride 20mg -15 min before b/f
Gluconorm P (15/500) -15 min before dinner
Her sugar level dropped 55 earlier due to which doctor added gluconorm p in her medication. Now though the sugar level is controlled like it comes approx 125 (empty stomach), 140 (2 hrs after B/F) and 119 (before dinner)
I would like to ask if the medication prescribed tk her is okay or not or do we need to consult some other doctor. Please guide and help
