TRAB (TSH Receptor Antibodies)
Does anyone know where the cheapest private blood test for TSH Receptor Antibodies can be found? Most tests I see include TPO and TgAB but not TRAb or TSI Ab. Specifically looking for this test for regular monitoring after discussion with an endocrinologist.

Armour Thyroid for over 20 years
I have been taking Armour thyroid since 2000... Have had my current Dr for at least 20.

Advice before speaking to GP
Hi Everyone I am asking for advice before I speak to my GP. All advice gratefully received. I know when I posted my last results on here people said my high cholesterol was possibly due to my Thyroid levels. My TSH was 2.5 (range 0.27-4.2) which people here said was too high as I’m on Levothyroxine
