I'm a bit confused about my TSH test resultsit came back at 60, which I know is higher than the normal range of 0.55. I have some symptoms of hypothyroidism, but I'm not sure if they match up with my height, which is 174cm, and my weight is 75kg. Everything else in my tests came back normal. Is this possible? What should I do next?
