I've been feeling really thirsty for about a year now, and I'm starting to worry a bit. My dad had diabetes, so I got tested to see if that was the issue, but the blood sugar came back normal. The tests did show that my Vitamin D3 levels are on the low side and my alkaline phosphatase levels are higher than they should be. I'm a 53-year-old guy, and I'm curious about what might be causing these higher alkaline phosphatase levels in my blood. Would you have any ideas?

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?

NO need to worry as you are saying you have minimal symptoms,then the test could be error repeat the Thyroid profile better to give sample early in the morning in fasting,if it turns to be similar Visit Endocrinologist for evaluation and appropriate approach.
