While your antibodies are up, it also means that your levels wouldnt be stabilised properly so in regards to them being 'normal'...is that normal for YOU or normal for the Doctor?
Everyone is different with their levels.
Some function good with a TSH of 3.0 plus and yet others function good with a Tsh of under 2.0.
So as you can see, everyone is different.
What were your last lot of levels?
FT3, FT4 and Tsh?
Post them here and maybe others can help you in this regard.

I never started losing weight until my levels were stable for a good 8 weeks if thats any help.
