A member asked:
My tsh is 9.48 and i am taking thyronorm 50mcg. i am patient of slip disc from last 1.5 years.is there any affect of thyroid on slip disc?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not really: there is no strong relationship between hypothyroidism and slipped disc. Your TSH is however elevated. You are also on just a small dose of thyroid hormone replacement. The elevation in your TSH suggests you may need a higher dose. You should discuss this with your prescribing physician.
