Hypothyroidism

My mother (68 yrs) has hypothyroidism. When we checked her thyroid levels in Aug'23, her TSH was 9.60 and hence, the doctor prescribed Thyronorm 100mcg. However her recent blood report, taken a week ago, is showing 0.103 on her TSH level. T3 is 104 and T4 is 8.12. Before Aug, she was taking Thyronorm 75 mcg but it was not working. Hence, the doc increased the dosage. She has lost a little extra weight too. Please suggest what to do.

Home management of DKA

My Aunty got discharged after 6 days of treatment in ICU for diabetic ketoacidosis. Now she should be carefully monitored for blood glucose and other electrolytes, along with frequent administration of injections with dose adjustments.
