Wish me luck....I am going in to talk to my normal GP about my possible thyroid issue today when I go in for repeats of Prolactin blood test

Yes, docs should take into account close family medical history together with having your thyroid antibodies tested, I was told that I was NOT hypothyroid with a TSH of 7.9 but then I found thyroid forums and Thyroid UK and asked my Doc for thyroid antibodies to be tested, he did and they were off the scale - how can a doctor argue then?

Let us know how you get on, preferably you would also have your ferritin, folate, vitamin D and B12 tested too.
