Does anyone know the effects of having both COPD and hypothyroidism?

Question

I have hypothyroidism and have recently been diagnosed with COPD/Emphysema. I was wondering if anyone would know about both conditions together. I do know the hypo thyroids already slow the body to some extent but, I am curious about if a person has both. Anything you can share would be appreciated.

Answer 1

If you have COPD as well as hypothyroidism and taking the proper dose of thyroxin sulphate( avoid other salt of thyroxin) Than their is not much to worry about. But incorrect dose of thyroxin may play havoc.COPD & hypo thyroidisn has no direct relation but hypo or hyper thyroidism has a very specific role to play with the rate of respiration and from here the relation starts in between.Keep checking your TSH level atleast once in 4 months.

Answer 2

So..
I was interested in finding ways to naturally overcome hypothyroidism and I discovered this online resource called hypothyroidismrevolution. The author Tom Brimeyer explains an unconventional approach to hypothyroidism that I’ve never seen anywhere before. This is EYE-OPENING info for anyone who suffers from hypothyroidism and who really wants to learn the truth about how to permanently overcome hypothyroidism.
