I'm a 27 year old female. My TSH last spring was 0.9 on a scale of 0-4. Is this normal, abnormal, and how do I interpret it? I didn't have a full thyroid panel run.

Normal. For most people, the nearer they are to the low end the better.

That is an excellent tsh number for most.

Did you have a TPO run to see if you are Hashis?

Celiac is a good reason to find out, and ask for a full thyroid panel. Sometimes the other tests can be off, and your tsh be normal. Abnormal results on other thyroid tests can be reason for treatment.

That was an old panel, run before I knew what to ask for. Next time, I'm going to ask for the full panel plus TPO.

Good luck. Saw your other posts about a new joint issue. That really sucks. Hope you feel better soon.

      I hadn't been eating gluten free before having the antibody test done. I started eating gluten free after having the test done because the gastro PA told me to eat gluten-free for 6 months. I'm now 3 months in.

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

      By trents · Posted

      I tend to agree with RMJ. Your doc took the reasonable and practical approach to diagnosis. All things considered, it was the right way to go. However, if you have first degree relatives that show signs of possible celiac disease, urge them to get formally tested before they start the gluten free diet.

      It sounds like you have a very reasonable GI doctor, who diagnosed you based on family history and symptoms after eating gluten. I would consider you lucky! The other option would be to make yourself very sick by doing weeks of a gluten challenge prior to an endoscopy.
