Is it possible to have an underactive thyroid despite blood tests coming back "normal"? I've had symptoms for quite some time that fit with hypothyroidism, though of course could well be down to something else. My main concern is lack of weight loss despite putting my (almost) all into trying.
I'm 45. I suffer from ME, which does rather complicate things. I tend to blame the ME for just about everything but I'm wondering if that's just been masking other issues.
For what it's worth, my blood test results were: Serum free T4 level: 8.2 pmol/L (range is 7.0 - 17.0)
Serum TSH level: 1.52mu/L (range is 0.40 - 4.50)
If anyone has any info/input on this, I'd be very grateful!
Thanks in advance
