Advise on medication Please.

Following on from previous posts, GP has now prescribed 10mg of Carbimazole following bloods results indicating Hyperthyroidism.

I am aware and understand how this medication works and that symptoms will slowly resolve as raised thyroid hormone levels in the body drop and this may take time.. However I feel my symptoms are getting worse. I haven’t previously experienced feeling jittery and shaky ( have been taking Bisoprolol 2.5 mg prior and following Pacemaker insertion July) which I suspect has helped but I am now experiencing this unpleasant symptom.

Please advise whether medication needs changing or doses adjusting to help relieve symptoms. Following advice previously given, I have split the Carbimazole dose to 5mg BD despite it being prescribed once daily.

Thanks in advance for advice/ suggestions to help.
