So the presence of antibodies were found in relation to my thyroid, not sure which test as I was not given specifics but the number in relation was 103, my TSH was checked and deemed "normal" so the doctor considered it a non-issue at the moment and closed the book on it, regardless of my awful symptoms.
However after doing continuous research, it's clear the TSH test is a failure and not even close to sufficient in diagnosing autoimmune related conditions of the thyroid (Hashimoto's tyroiditis + Grave's ect.)
I am desperate to get in touch/work with a physician who is willing to run a full thyroid panel and all relevant tests in association with autoimmune thyroiditis.
I am based in Greater Manchester and would like any assistance in finding the relevant help.
Thank you.

Private testing through any of the companies mentioned are all serviced by accredited labs, so 'standards' are not the issue. Most people choose whichever test suits their requirements, as not all companies offer the exact same tests.
