ajs,

FT4 is just under half way through range and FT3 nearly at bottom.

TGA is low (which is good) and many gut issues recover with higher levels of thyroid hormone.

Don't know what TPA is but Vit B12, folate, and Vit D is still low although you say you are supplementing in a previous post.

A multi nodular goitre together with low thyroid hormone indicates your thyroid is working over time. Have you had TGAb tested yet ?

Your cortisol levels and DHEAS are low as advised in a previous post and correspond with low thyroid hormone as this will try to compensate.

Hi Radd,

TGA is thyroglobulin antibody, which I think that is the same as TGAb. TPA is thyroid peroxidase antibodies
