Likely failed FET - what are next steps?
The only thing that has come up is that I have slightly raised
TPO
antibodies but the consultant didn’t seem too concerned about that.

8 months since first post..new results and questions
I have
TPO
antibodies confirmed. TSH – I’m assuming I ignore that, although any doc won’t. I'm not going to share with GP unless they ask.

confusing results - any advice (other than I should be better with my supplements)
My
TPO
antibodies are 119 (range 0-34) the lowest they have been since a six month spell August 21- Feb 22 when they were 77 and 106. My Tg antibodies are 227 the lowest they have ever been. My free T4 is 14.7 (range 12-22) the lowest it has ever been, down from 21 in December.

Recently diagnosed - help request to understand test results
I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism in February and prescribed Levothyroxine 50mg per day. My February blood tests resulted in a diagnosis of Hashimoto's Disease and an increase to 100mg per day. My GP told me that my latest test results (18.04.23) show that my thyroid is normal and I'm negative for

Paleontology Diet – By Dr Barry Durrant-Peatfield
Excerpt from the transcript of a talk given by the late Dr Barry Durrant-Peatfield at one of TPA's Annual Conferences several years ago.
I'm posting this here because we've recently had a few questions/posts about extreme diets such as the carnivor diet. Personally, I think what Dr Peatfield

Test Result Guidance Please 🙏
To the wise oricles and sages in the group, please could you guide me with my Atrophic Autoimmune Thyroiditis. Despite waiting soooo long to get a private test result, I had been preparing myself for "within range" results. (How sad is that?) I know I probably should be happier with the results, but

B12 normal but folate low normal
I got bloods done and discovered he has
TPO
antibodies, and that started the route to endocrinology and hypothyroidism. He’s now started medication However his most distressing symptom is the memory issue.

Links between Dyslexia (short term memory issues) and Hypothyroidism. Italian study with dyslexic children showing 60% had TPO antibodies
-Ab positivity was significantly higher in subjects with developmental dyslexia compared to controls (60.8% vs. 2.9%, p < 0.001),
while no significant difference was found in TG-Ab positivity (16% vs. 5.8%).

Antibodies for Hashis
Good morning all, I have often seen it mentioned (mostly by SlowDragon that a significant minority of Hashis sufferers only have high TG antibodies rather than
TPO
. Also, some never have raised antibodies at all. Is there any research paper available concerning this please?

Graves' Disease with severe Afib
Hello, I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's in 2000 (four years after giving birth to my son) with
TPO
antibodies in the 500 range. Was experiencing hair loss, acne and fatigue. I was treated with Synthroid and Cytomel by a highly respected endocrinologist. In 2009 I became hyperthyroid.

On long NDT (ERFA) trial, latest test results, any thoughts on these would be helpful.
Since having Thyroid Peroxidase Antibodies in 2017 over 900 IU/ml and Thyroglobulin Antibodies over 200 IU/ml both have consistently come down to now Tga is in range and
Tpo
is almost in range too. Any thoughts on what this means if anything?!
