Please post the actual results of the antibody tests that were run and any other thyroid tests that contributed to the Grave's and Hashi's diagnoses.
Thanks! but the bloodwork was antibodies. I do swing on TSH but the antibodies were both positive for each disease.
WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO KNOW IF I HAVE HASHI’S?? As the attack increases, you will tend to swing between hypo and hyper, making dosing by labs, and especially the TSH, impossible. Your labs will be high one time, and low the next…back and forth. The hyper is caused by the release of thyroid hormones into your blood due to the destruction. The hypo is caused by the lessening function of your thyroid due to the attack.
