The question is not quite clear.  A TSH of 11.48 is not borderline - it is showing an underactive thyroid that needs further evaluation and likely treatment.  Would ask your doctor for more information and to repeat the TSH along with TPO antibodies and T4 levels -- this will help make the likely diagnosis of hypothyroidism due to Hashimoto's.
