I'm trying to understand my recent test results and I'm a bit worried. My Anti Thyroid Peroxidase antibody is over 1300, but my Anti Thyroglobulin antibody is within the normal range at 28. Also, my T3 is 1.26, TSH is 5.43, and T4 is 8.01, which are all within normal limits. But my Vitamin D levels are low at 12. What do these findings suggest? Should I consider getting a thyroid scan done?
