Greetings to everyone, I went to a neurologist because of the tinnitus (on the recommendation of the ORL specialist), and during the examination, the neurologist noticed that my hair was extremely rare. Also, I have had other symptoms for some time – fatigue, immeasurability, constipation, frequent headaches and occasional dizziness.
The neurologist recommended that I do thyroid hormones (TSH, FT4, FT3), thyroid antibodies and sex hormones.
However, the family doctor gave me a thyroid hormone and sex hormone referral, but not for antibodies.
The findings are in reference values, but the TSH and FT4 are near the upper and lower limits.
I am worried because I have not been feeling well for a long time, and I have read that this pattern may indicate the beginning of subclinical hypothyroidism.
Did anyone have a similar experience? Should it be insisted on further processing, especially on antibodies? Thanks in advance.

Trebao bi uraditi i antitijela. Ukoliko ona budu povisena, bez obzira na to sto si u eutireozi, mozes imati drugo autoimuno oboljenje – Hasimoto. Svi ti simptomi koje si opisao su dio klinicke slike ovog oboljenja, a to znam iz vlastitog iskustva i obrazovanja. Hasimoto moze, ali ne mora, prerasti u hipotireozu. Prema tome, odradi antitijela i posavjetuj se sa endokrinologom. Sve najbolje!
Insistiraj, nema ti druge. Mada meni na kontroli (za hipertireozu) gledaju samo nivoe hormona, ne antitijela, i ako su oni okej računaju na to da je i štitna okej. Tako da nemoj da te iznenadi ako budu okej. Ali definitivno se isplati provjerit.
Sve to sa strane, simptomi koje si naveo mogu biti iz milion razloga. Ali štitna ti je i više nego dobar početak.
Sretno! 🍀
