I had thyroid problems, so I underwent surgery. My question is, do I still have to continue my thyroid tablets or not? Thank you.

My blood test report has shown some abnormal figures, but I neither consume alcohol nor smoke. What could be the possible cause of this? I have read that heavy workouts at the gym may also cause changes in liver enzymes. My LDH is 375 IU/L, and my TSH is 6.4 mIU/ml. Could you please clarify what this indicates? I am planning to repeat the test in a different lab before consulting a doctor. At present, I do not have any issues with my bowel movements, urine, or food intake. During this period, I was also taking Acutret 10 mg for 10 days, and the test was conducted while I was on this medication. Could this tablet have caused any side effects reflected in my report?

I had consulted a skin specialist for pimples on my face. She suggested I go for a blood check and a scan. My report shows TSH level 5.73 and ASM level 5.81. What should I do to reduce my TSH level.
