Labs are fine, still feel sick

Labs are fine, still feel sick.
Hi there,
I need my TSH suppressed due to thyroid cancer in feb this year. Struggling ever since. ALL my labs are fine, all within range yet I always still feel extremely sick and dizzy through out he day. I'm on 85 per day of thyroxine.
Any suggestions on what to take for the nausea ??

Hiya,

Got it all checked and all fine. Had liver, kidneys, b12, cortisol etc and still can't see to shake off this dizzy, nauses and lightheaded feeling.

I just want to return to work but this gets quite bad at times :(

Wow, thank you for such a quick response.
I did have tests done today including liver, cortisol, b12 and some others.
As bad as it may sound, I really hope they find something wrong as its getting quite tough. Results come Friday.
Here in OZ it's summer and I have been getting hot flushes so bad and it doesn't help with the weather so I'm hoping the results may help with that too.
Thanks again :)

Hello and hope you are doing well.

Levothyroxine can sometimes affect the liver and cause elevated liver enzymes. This could cause the nausea. Have yourself evaluated for this. This can be detected by a simple blood test.

Hope this helped and do keep us posted.
