Colonoscopy under general anaesthetic?
I have finally managed to get my T3 T4 levels at a good steady level and also lowered my
TPO
and other inflammatory levels down.

Do immunosuppressants skew thyroid blood results?
As I am riddled with autoimmune diseases I expected to have high Thyroid Peroxidase Antibodies (Anti-
TPO
) but it is 0.06 (00.0 - 5.61 normal).

Antibodies and ultimate destruction of the thyroid
greygoose I have now been gluten free for nearly two years and my sole aim has been to reduce my antibodies (
TPO
>1300 and thyroglobulin antibodies 394). These have both gone down substantially on each of my last three blood tests.

Antibody tests
Hello, new member here hoping for a bit of advice! I had an antibody blood test done recently as my mum has myxedema and my thyroid levels have been all over the place especially during and after pregnancy (my baby is 7months old). The blood test came back as positive anti thyroid peroxidase antibody

Blood test thyroid medication
Initially a doctor at University picked up my
Tpo
antibodies was 350 told me to keep monitoring as TSH was normal. Two years later it’s in the thousands and is gained 15kg. So I have been on Levothyroxine ever since. Same dose of 100mcg.

Positive TPO, borderline low T4
However the last tests have shown a border line low T4 (12.4/against a scale 12 - 22) and a positive test for
TPO
of 14.3 (scale of 0-34) My question what does the positive reading of
TPO
suggest - if anything? Struggling to get any answers I can understand about
TPO
on line Thanks

Little long - TSH swinging up and down, Dr says 'wait and see' but we need IVF!
He said my
TPO
antibodies are +ve but TRABS are -ve, and that he is simply going to ‘wait and watch’ as TFT’s are back to normal. I’m not entirely sure I follow what this exactly means, and I’ve thus far been unable to get hold of him or the patient pathway co-ordinator.

Not hypothyroid after all but referred to rheumatologist to check for fibromyalgia and/or lupus.
My ferririn is at 27,
TPO
are negative and my tsh and free T4 in normal range, my cholesterol is low normal range and the doctor is adamant it’s not my thyroid causing my symptoms.

Completely lost
My GP sent me for another ultrasound on my neck and my
TPO
antibodies came back at 432 ( range 3 - 30). They have found a lesion on my thyroid and a couple of nodules on the Parathyroid, but feel that the lump is a lymph node. I then had nuclear radiation scan.

Sudden high thyroid hormones - no symptoms other than a lump and very itchy rash
I've explained ideally she will get TG,
TPO
and TSI abs tests, and a thyroid scan. She's not sure whether or not to take the carbimazole or wait for further testing. Any ideas on what this lump could be - it looks like it's too far back to be a gland??

Wish me luck!
In all my time I have NEVER had tests for vitamin D, ferritin, folate,
TPO
or TG antibodies tested - but thanks to this forum have asked for them this time. I managed to get B12 tested last time, at the suggesiton of my excellent pharmacist - and this was 471 (range 180 - 640).

GP won't test T3 or T4
I have my blood tests done annually & up till now my GP has approved all the tests I've seen recommended here (TSH, FT4, FT3, ferritin, folate, B12, vit D,
TPO
). I've been on 100mcg levothyroxine for a few years now. At this level combined with a gluten free diet due to Hashimotos I feel fine.
