What other tests do I need?

[Lorna19]

Hi I have diagnosed with overactive thyroid and awaiting endocrinologist appointment.

I’m having more bloods next week and looking at other posts I can see I need to make sure I have the following also tested.

Thyroid antibodies

Vit d

Folate

B12

Are there any others that I need testing?

Thank

You need iron-ferritin, very important. But i would say you got them all there-you may struggle getting the antibodies done by gp though!! Endos usually do them if you get a good knowledgeable one. Good luck.😊😊

You need TPO, TG and TSI antibodies tested

My auto antibodies for Tg and Tpo came back inconclusive. But had tsh autoantibodies done and they were indicating Grave’s Disease
