TSI testing, who offers this?

I would like to have my TSI checked to see if I have Graves. I am hyperthyroid but unsure of the cause.

My GP wont do this nor will the endocrinologist I am due to see next month (her reason was my TPO antibodies were ok).

I have looked at all the private options on ThyroidUK and none offers this particular test.

Are there other options? I live in Norfolk.

Many thanks

I don't know of anywhere where you can get TSI Abs tested privately.

As far as I am aware it can be either TSI or TRAbs to test for Graves.

You can get TRAbs (TSH Receptor Stimulating Antibodies test with Medichecks
