Hi,
My partner has been having some Thyroid issues for a number of years now. She was prescribed levothyroxine in 2015 but the GP never really followed up or monitored tests result etc.
She has access to some results on Patient Access, but not everything from all the blood tests that she's had.
They are as follows:
Test | Date | Result | Range
Serum Free T4 | 11/2014 | 10.5 | 10.6-21
TPO antibodies | 07/2015 | 1480 | 0-59
Rheumatoid factor | 01/2016 | 14 | below 14
TPO antibodies | 11/2016 | 2128 | 0-60
Serum Free T4 | 11/2016 | 10.5 | 10.6-21
Serum TSH | 08/2017 | 1.8 | 0.3 - 4.5
Serum Free T4 | 08/2017 | 14.4 | 10-22
Now because of the high TPO we're thinking it's Hashimoto's. But can anyone shed some light on what the results indicate that would be appreciated. And just how high are these levels? I've had a search on here and most people seem to report back them being in the hundreds, rather than thousands.
She's recently had to change GP because the old one changed boundary area and her new one is terrible, next routine appointment available is not until the end of July. And after how the previous GP did nothing we're not expecting much from them.
We're thinking about doing MediChecks test and taking those results to a private Endocrinologist. We're based in Birmingham if anyone has anyone they can recommend?
