My daughter runs 5k races , she couldn't finish a race weakness in her legs. the doctor has determined her ths is 6.4 is it safe for her to run?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Evaluation: A TSH of 6.4 implies hypothyroidism. She should see her physician to get this evaluated. She will need more lab work to determine the cause (thyroid antibodies...). Once treatment is started, she should be ok and can resume her normal activities as long as she feels ok.
