Thank you, I appreciate your quick response, I am a female but yes, that's just the way the hospitals work for military. I won't say all of them are bad but that's just my experience. I am sorry to hear that, but relieved that the surgery went well! I have gotten all of those labs' multiple times, my most recent is still the same, high TSH and high T4, all of my T3 's are normal and my antibodies (AB is 600 iu/ml) and (thyroglobulin is 4,000 Ui/ml). They haven't diagnosed me yet, since I am experiencing both hyper and hypo symptoms. The endocrinologist is stumped because he's never seen someone with persistent high TSH and HIGH T4. It's not common for Hashimoto's, the beginning stages of Hashimoto's may cause high TSH and T4 but not over a span of 8months. I have my next appointment with my ENDO next week, I am nervous. I have been experiencing crazy symptoms for over a year now with nothing to help. Whatever it is is also causing my bones to heal slow. I had an Austin bunionectomy in Jan this year and my bone still isn't healed from the surgery, even my podiatrist was concerned because it should have healed about 5 weeks ago.

@alexandriagarcia0611 I see your AB is 600 and thyroglobulin is 4.000, you have Hashimoto’s. It’s all about your diet. Has your doctor mentioned foods to avoid? I would start by avoiding gluten, dairy, soy and seed oils. They are inflammatory foods and cause body inflammation. Hashimoto’s will also slow your healing process. Don’t wait too long to get this under control. Wishing you all the best!
