Hello Fariha ji,
As you mentioned that you are experiencing abdominal discomfort, it may be due to the gallbladder stones that you have. I need to know the details of your latest reports:
- TSH
- T3
- T4
- USG report
- LFT
Additionally, please let me know the medication and dosage you are currently taking for thyroid, and whether you have any surgical history.
Once I have this information, I will be able to suggest the best diet plan and medication for you.
Kindly share all the required details.

Ah, indigestion and gal stones can be quite a combo, plus hypothyroidism adding its bit. So you're dealing with a trifecta of sorts, right? Let's dive into that with an Ayurvedic lens.
First off, your symptoms suggest an imbalance in the Pitta and Vata doshas—which isn't surprising given the digestive issues and gallbladder stuff. In Ayurveda, the digestive fire, or agni, plays a huge role in metabolism. If it’s irregular, all sorts of things can go wonky, from slow metabolism to alternating between constipation and soft stools.
For managing gallstones, keeping Pitta in check is key, as it’s heavily involved with the liver and gallbladder functions. You might wanna consider including foods that are naturally cooling. Think cucumbers, coriander, and bitter greens, which are helpful for balancing Pitta. Also, small frequent meals can be easier for your digestive system than big ones - this way you don't overload it.
Since you mentioned hypothyroidism – which can be tied to a sluggish metabolism – you want to also support your thyroid. Consuming warm, freshly cooked meals can be nourishing. Warm water with a bit of lemon in the morning can also be helpful to boost your agni. Kinda like a wakeup call for your system. And, balancing Iodine levels via diet can also support the thyroid, but always with a dash of caution and perhaps input from your doctor.
Oh, and hydration! Don’t forget that. Water but at room temp or warm if you can, no ice-cold drinks. They can dampen the already slow metabolism.
For a routine, yoga or gentle exercise regularly can help keep things moving, both digestion- and gally-stone-wise, and it does wonders for stress, which sneaks into digestion sometimes too.
Of course, if that gallstone pain flares up it's a good idea to contact your doc asap, especially if it’s intense. Ayurveda's amazing at balancing, but immediate medical situations need sharp-check so as not to complicate things.
Hope that helps a bit. Feel free to tweak it to fit what feels right for you. Keep in touch with yourself and watch how your body responds.
