Hypothyroidism also causes T2DM & HTN

[dixitbp]

I was suffering from HTN (155/110). T2DM (135/195) was also diagnosed and am under treatment since 2005. In 2011 dementia developed. On further investigations hypothyroidism was detected (TSH level 52.7) and is being treated with Thyronorm. HTN and T2DM are 125/75 and 75/130.

Does T2DM cause hypothyroidism or is it other way round. It has to calerfied by a diabetic spl doctor.

Hypothyroidism reduces body resistance and functions of body organs. Hence it should be treated first to treat HTN & T2DM. These two are controlled easily if Hypothyroidism is treated first as it has happened in my case.
