Is this common and any advice would be of help? Early days and could find its all worry for nothing...keeping positive whatever the results, I just find knowledge can be key. Symptoms line up and GP talked through it, awaiting dematology referal and initial blood results.

Do they take into account the same antibodies blood tests as per the thyriod ones we have re thyroglobin and PA antibodies?
