High Tbo and Vitamin D Deficient
I received my new blood test results.
TPO Ab 110 Ref. Range 0-34
Viamin D, 25-Hydroxy 13.0 Ref. Range 30.0-100.0
Thyroxine (T4) Free, Direct, S T4, Free 0.96 Ref. Range 0.82-1.77
TSH 3.510 Ref. Range 0.450-4.50
Can someone please tell me what all this means, if it means anything. Does having high levels of TPO always mean Hashi's?

i have considered hashimotos as well but am not very familiar. i tend to concentrate on symptoms and management instead of frustration with drs for dx's.
i have had a severe vitamin d deficiency for years. at least that is verifiable by blood work. the rest of ur numbers i am not familar with

Thank you very much for taking the time to answer my post. I have an appt next week with an endo. If said endo will not help me I will seek another until I get the help need.
In my opinion you need an Endo. You have low Vit D & TSH level over 3.0. You are hypo.
Are you having any symptoms?

Hi there!
Elevated TPO Ab indicates Hashimoto's thyroiditis which is the most common cause for hypothyroidism. In Hashimoto's thyroiditis there is hypothyroidism alternating with bouts of hyperthyroidism. There is weight gain, depression, sensitivity to heat and cold, muscle weakness, cramps, fatigue, panic attacks, memory loss, infertility and hair loss in this condition. People suffering from hypothyroidism may have low levels of vitamin D due to poor absorption from the gut. Low levels of vitamin D have been linked to the development of autoimmune diseases. Vitamin D deficiency can also be correlated to the presence of anti-thyroid antibodies and abnormal thyroid function tests. Thus Vitamin D may play a role in pathogenesis if autoimmune thyroiditis and its supplementation may be needed. It is best to consult an endocrinologist. That might help.
Good luck!
