A TSH over 10 mIU/L has been linked to an increased risk of coronary heart disease and heart failure, which is why you' will probably want to seek treatment if your TSH is close to (but still under) that upper limit

Dr. Bhanu Suggests...

Take a DENGUE NS1 ANTIGEN - ELISA/ELFA/CLIA - HR Test or Take a P-ANCA (MPO) Test
