I've got my latest test results as per photo attached.
It is to me or this is a swinging in the TSH levels, as in July my TSH was 5.05 now is 2.38.
Could this one indicate Hasimoto's?
GP said is not Hasimoto as my last TPOAB were normal and the TGAB if high is not Hasimoto related?!
Should I go private with full thyroid panel in 8 weeks time?
The symptoms are everyday the same and I am gaining weight, not much but I cannot lose any weigh and the tiredness is awful
GP said is just depression and I need to exercise more, but I don't believe that, not anymore!!!
Was your TgAB high? How high. Was it your doctor that said high TgAB doesn't indicate Hashi's? Depends how high. Depression certainly doesn't cause high antibodies of any kind!
Hi greygoose, thank you for your response.
No I didn't have any TgAB tested, just TPO which came back as normal.
I've asked Gp to test for TgAB thru NSH and she said that the she cannot and even if she will test TgAB and they came back high doesn't mean Hashi's!!😥
Well, she knows nothing about thyroid, does she. You can't believe a word this woman says. As I said, depends how high the TgAB is. But the NHS doesn't test for it in connection with Hashi's, although it does sometimes for other things.
Well this is what I thought about this in the 1st place.
I will go take another private test as the NHS knows nothing about this!
It makes me angry about how I feel and about losing my non-existent energy, argue with the doctors that makes me feel as this is all my fault, when I am looking for help and all I received back is the "depression label" and prescriptions for antidepressant when I know this is not the case.
I'm afraid it's a universal problem. Doctors in general know nothing about thyroid.
