TSH 3.07 but told it's "normal"

2 Replies

Despite feeling like crap, thinning hair, sweating too easily in warm conditions and digestive problems I cant seem to get anywhere. My TSH floats between 3 and 4 yet I've been told it's "normal". Can anyone take a look at my results and offer some advice please? Thanks so much.

John11,

By normal it is meant that TSH is within range. TSH 3.07 is within range but it is high enough to indicate the thyroid gland is struggling and for you to be symptomatic. Unfortunately NHS doesn't usually diagnose hypothyroidism until TSH is over range or FT4 is below range.

Thyroid antibodies are negative for autoimmune thyroiditis (Hashimoto's).

CRP, ferritin and Vitamin D are very good.

B12 is low and folate deficient. Ask for advice on healthunlocked.com/pasoc

As you are having digestive problems it may be worth trying a 100% gluten-free diet for 3-4 weeks to see whether symptoms improve.
