I can't find my thread a month ago with my blood results but they've repeated them last week Confused

Serum TSH

Hi OP, did your results not come back including the normal range for the lab alongside your result?

If not, you can just google 'Serum TSH normal range' etc to see whether your results seem roughly normal. All labs normal ranges differ slightly so it won't be exact. In theory your doctor should contact you if there's anything of concern in your results.

Quick google suggests your top three results are below range but I don't have time to google them all for you.

This website is useful for finding out what low/high results mean:

As @BlackInk says, we need the reference ranges, which vary from lab to lab, if we are to offer sensible feedback.

Ah. It doesn't say anything apart from the numbers above and in a separate column (below or above normal)

Googling the pathology handbook for your area might turn up the reference ranges.

They bottom ones look in 'normal' range to me although your TSH is low and the other TSH tests are in range which would indicate subclinical hyperthyroidism.
