High TPO but normal TSH?
I have a history of 'borderline' thyroid results and my most recent test shows my TSH to be ok at 2.94 but my
TPO
antibodies are 408 (normal range less than 35). The other antibody test was fine. Could my symptoms be anything to do with my thyroid or am I clutching at straws?

Medication for subclinical hypothyroidism
Hi everyone, I've posted here before regarding subclinical hypothyroidism, not sure what is causing it. I've ruled out celiac disease, I'm trying to take iron and b12 everyday, but still my tsh is consistently high. My GP has agreed to trial 25mg levothyroxine. I'm really worried after reading how

Optimum TPO level
Is there an optimum level that our
TPO
antibodies need to be at, when it's considered that our autoimmune reaction is not so high? At diagnosis over 4 years ago, my
TPO
level was 365. In March 2021, it was 121 and recently was 94.

Advice on recent Bloods please
I would really appreciate your advice on blood results please. I have been taking Levothyroxine for 10 years. When I read ElleMai's post I was tearful, that was me 10 years ago. Once medicated I certainly felt much better but not great. I've been frustrated for years at my low energy levels, crawling

Advice on lowering high-ish saliva cortisol levels
: 195 (<34) (my
TPO
stay in the same 100-200 range, but I lowered them from 600 before) Anti-TG: 60 (<115) (my anti-TG has been lowered from 550 before and stays in about the same range) Liver, kidney, FBC, CRP, folate, Vit D, B12, etc - all ideal and optimum ranges.

Getting GP on board
Offered a repeat NHS thyroid test, with the
TPO
antibodies, and *if* elevated TSH again, she could refer on to Endo, but had no idea how long that would take. Basically only looks at the lab ranges and goes with the NICE guidelines.

My total results so far. Opinions?
I have 3 questions: 1-Is it possible to have both high anti
tpo
and Trab? does that mean I have Graves and Hashimotos? 2- What is your opinion on my vitamin levels? should I add any vitamin?
