Hello @cwal, I saw your earlier discussion New Dx for Graves / Subclinical Hyperthyroid - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/new-dx-for-graves-subclinical-hyperthyroid/ and did a search on Connect and found one other member who mentioned being tested for it but didn't have the infection. I did find an article on the your other discussion that might be helpful. The article has other references listed that also might be helpful.
