hi
my mother a few months ago went to the drs as she feels weak and tired alot, she had a TSH test which came back abnormal not sure if it was high or low, the drs then called her back after a few months and repeated the TSH test and this time the results were normal
i believe the best test for this is the free t3 and t4 which drs have not done, for her to have an abnormal result and then a normal result after a few months can this indicate her thyroid is fine now?
are there any other factors that can influence/change cause abnormal results for tsh? for example being on antibiotics, exercising, viral infections of some kind.
should i be taking my mother back tot her dr and asking for further investigation as the results were abnormal before, it does seem like they have brushed it under the mat for some reason.
i hope someone can answer my questions as i am worried for my mother as she seems to be feeling worse day by day, weak and tired.
thank you
