Had blood test done privately as doctor keeps telling me I'm in a normal range

Here's my results

CRP- 4.6

Ferritin-152

FT4-18.5

T4-84.8

TSH-2.96

FT3-4.08

TGAB-435.000

TPOAB-127

Vitamin D-39.9

Folate-8.36

B12-2.41

Thyroxin 162.5mg

Any higher dose and my body rejects it been to see an endocrinologist who asked doctor for bloods but not seen him since

What do I do now any advice?

Merw Can you add the ranges to your results please, it's hard to comment without them. Ranges vary from lab to lab so we need them to interpret your results.

I agree with Seaside Susie, post the ranges and units, different countries and different labs within those countries have different units and ranges. HOWEVER... if we assume conventional units your TSH and antibodies point to you having Hashimoto's disease, those three are very high and they should be very low (well, TSH <= 1.0 miU/L). Thyroglobulin Antibodies (TGAB) should be <= 1 IU/mL and Thyroid Peroxidase Antibodies (TPOAB)_should be <9 IU/mL. Yours are in the hundreds. Point this out to your doc, he will probably not know what to do with these results but at least you could ask him why they are not close to "normal" range (anyone's range) and it might start him thinking. These results would at least warrant a visit to an Endocrinologist.
