Advice on complaining/raising a concern about a consultant (self referral)
My TSH was not considered high enough to treat by my GP but the thyroid panel found high
TPO
antibodies. Long list of symptoms that go back many years plus family history of under active.

Very high TPO levels | next steps?
T4 | 08/2017 | 14.4 | 10-22 Now because of the high
TPO
we're thinking it's Hashimoto's.

Refused dose increase today
My Levo dose was reduced at the beginning of the year based on my TSH. As expected I have had severe symptom return, the worst has been dreadful constipation and fatigue, crumbled nails and low mood. I have struggled badly for 4 months now. This morning I saw a new and young GP who I hoped would agree

High cortisol=causing high antibodies?
TPO
is generally 800 to 1000. Havent had it tested this time but it occurred to me (I have always had some adrenal issues)..do these issues also cause the higher TPOs? As i understand, cortisol blocks T4 conversion to t3 too which explains why I have this as an issue now.

Advice on supplements after blood tests.
On 17th April I had numerous blood tests following a visit to the doctors to discuss my extreme tiredness and hair loss. I was subsequently diagnosed with an under active thyroid but I wonder if any one can look at the other test results and suggest some supplements. I've entered my subsequent thyroid

Antibody tests
I ‘advised’ (you can tell this was going so well lol) that I should be tested for
TPO
antibodies. Was I right?
