Do you have any symptoms?

Have you or any of your family members had Thyroid Antibodies tested ( TPO - Thyroid Peroxidase & Tg - Thyroglobulin) ?

Also ask to test vitamin D, folate, ferritin and B12

Hi Zander. I see from your previous post that one of your blood tests tested positive for coeliac disease.

Have you ever had your B12 levels tested? Many of the symptoms of low B12 are very similar to hypothyroidism. B12 deficiency is very common in those with coeliac disease (even if you now eat gluten free the damage may have been done before it was diagnosed).

Your results suggest your thyroid is struggling slightly but it’s managing at the moment. Would be well worth keeping an eye on it as it does seem likely, given your family history, that it will fail sooner or later.
