Patient's question:
On August 20th, I felt weak due to acute gastroenteritis, and my arms and legs started to feel weak. I also have early awakening due to neurasthenia, poor appetite, sometimes sweating profusely, and sometimes feeling palpitations. Should I have a thorough check-up for hyperthyroidism, see a traditional Chinese medicine doctor, or focus on taking medication? What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Do you often work overtime, smoke, drink beer, attend banquets, and lack physical exercise? Do you feel stressed from regular training and survival pressure? Do you frequently overeat, feel hungry easily, experience heat intolerance, excessive sweating, tremors, chest tightness, palpitations, and weight gain? You can have a thyroid function test, but it is more likely to be anxiety. Patients face the dangers of gastroenteritis, and we should actively implement examinations and treatments. Avoid avoiding medical visits. If gastroenteritis does not improve with treatment, it is necessary to promptly adjust the treatment plan.
