Worried about daughter.

I just had a smear, my stomach and periods are really problematic atm. The British dr here suggested thyroid tests. My TSH always comes up normal. Did u say I should check TPO and TgAb

Free t3 and t4?

My daughter has sent this message. I have Graves and my mother has Hashimoto's. My daughter is in Thailand and is not well at all. I think she has thyroid problems. Is there anything else other than what she has stated that she should be tested for. It will cost her £100’s To be tested in Thailand. But she’s coming back to Europe next month so I want to give her the best advice possible. Any tips greatly appreciated.

For a full picture, she needs

TSH

FT4

FT3

TPO and TG antibodies

and while she's at it I'd also check

Vit D

B12

Folate

Ferritin

With Graves and Hashi's in the family, she may well have a problem.
