I'm a bit worried because my T3 and T4 levels are normal, but my TSH is really high at 98 and my AntiTPO is 1440. I'm planning to see a doctor soon, but I'm curious to know if there's a way to reverse this autoimmune issue without having to take thyroxine if that's what the doctor suggests. Is there a different approach I might consider?

I'm currently taking 25mcg thyronorm tablets for my high TSH levels. I'm wondering if I should still take my thyronorm tablet on the morning of my thyroid blood test. Will it mess up the results? What's the best way to handle this?

For a 3-year-old with recurring fever (101F) every 8 hours, without cough, sneezing, or rash: Consider consulting a pediatrician to rule out underlying infections. Ibuprofen (Ibuges ic) help manage fever. Ensure the child stays hydrated with plenty of fluids. Monitor for any new symptoms. If fever persists or worsens, seek immediate medical attention
