Make an appointment to see your GP. Thyroid is probably inflamed because of your infection and s/he should check it over. Will probably be wait and see monitoring but GP might want to adjust your meds to see if it reduces the inflamation.

ps try to take your meds after the GP appt in case you're asked to have a TFT.

Not what you're looking for?
