What are 'healthy' levels of Thyroid antibodies?
The summary: Thyroperoxidase antibodies (aka TPO ab) * Between 100-300 (roughly) is considered a clinical win * Normal reference range is < 35 UI * The higher the levels the greater the risk of developing true hypothyroidism in the future https://drruscio.com/tips-for-hashimotos-

NEBIVOLOL AND THYROID MEDS
I have Hshimotos
thyroiditis
and only one kidney and read it can affect kidneys too, so its a catch 22 situation really. The palpitations I feel are very short lived when I feel them, always less than a minute and happen about 5 times in the day, but occasionally I am kept awake at night.

Help with choosing best blood test for Hashimoto's Thyroiditis
Two of my sisters have Hashimoto's and they are convinced that I have it too although as yet I am undiagnosed. I have Type 2 Diabetes and I have asked for my thyroid to be checked when I have my regular blood tests but usually they won't do it. The one time they did (well it was actually my Diabetic

Private blood test results from Blue Horizon, please advise
The positive thyroid antibody result, however, increases the possibility of your having or ultimately developing autoimmune thyroid disease, such as Hashimoto's
thyroiditis
or Grave's disease." These are private bloods done last week.

New member - feeling lost and not knowing which way to go! GP not helpful and ?to go private
I have a history (2011) of post pregnancy
thyroiditis
which rectified itself. In the last 15 months I’ve been having increasing hypothyroid symptoms. Problem is my blood tests (TSH, T4 and T3) all come back within range so the GP is not helpful.

Tachycardia after eating and waking up
Local consultant told me nothing wrong and to go on antidepressants, then sent a letter to my GP saying I had acute
thyroiditis
hence the slightly raised TSH (untrue, and not acute since i had raised TSH years ago) and that's why there's antibodies and that I may develop hyperthyroidism....pfft The professor

Still waiting for referral for second opinion
Hello, I have Hashimoto's
thyroiditis
. I posted three months ago asking for help in understanding my blood test results and I was amazed how knowledgeable so many of you were and embarrassed that I had not tried to understand my condition better.

Advice on complaining/raising a concern about a consultant (self referral)
The results stated positive for autoimmune
thyroiditis
so I thought it would then just be a formality to obtain a prescription. (Results are on previous posts). Consultant refused trial of thyroxine, stating that if he prescribed, I could become worse and then I could sue him.

Update on thyroid nodule
I've now had this check - and apparently the nodule has 'gone', reported as a 'resolving
thyroiditis
'. Did going gluten free help? or does this happen anyway? Best wishes to you all :)

What info should I discuss with specialist on my first appointment
Hi not posted for a while but as it's not far off my appointment for
thyroiditis
I was wondering what to discuss with specialist as all other things I'm being treated for seem to fit. Palpitations, Af. Painful joints, Arthritis.

So I have converted back to Levo for several reasons
My
thyroiditis
has been smashing away at my thyroid for the last 3 years, maybe my natural thyroid has fallen ? or maybe I’m just not getting enough protein and my bodies not regulating temp well, but on 250mcg Levo I feel fine. Any thoughts regards James

Help!
My recent ultrasound shows I still have active
thyroiditis
and my antibodies today were 338. So until I know they are within range and I have it under control (nearly there 🤞🏽) id like to remain under the care of my GP.

Vitamin D and thyroid function, what really causes thyroid problems maybe it's vitamin deficiencies! by Body Ecology the way to be.
Researchers found that low levels of vitamin D are associated with higher risk of thyroid antibodies which are found in those with autoimmune thyroid disorders, like Graves disease and Hashimoto's

Autoimmune thyroiditis
Hi, I was diagnosed with the above last December. I have been on levothyroxine since January 2018. Before this I was tired, I'd put on lots of weight and felt very depressed. My legs felt weak and my feet, hands, elbows, lumbar spine and fingers ached. Four months in and my symptoms have returned, except
