Have you had an antibody test TPO. My Tsh was all over the place last 2 years. Then felt very unwell with discomfort in my neck. Asked for TPO test. Reading was high, had Thyroid scan shows severe atrophy. Now about to start Paleo diet as antibodies are sign of auto immune disease which is made worse with Gluten in the diet.
