Now, that number has risen to approximately 8.6 in a matter of one month from the last test, but I have been off meds for about four months. I'm also struggling with my A1c, which went back to 5.7, indicating prediabetes. I have never been diabetic. What should I do about my thyroid and blood sugar levels?
I've been getting wacky numbers on thyroid peroxidase antibodies, with my last test coming in at 554 and my TSH being high. I've been trying over-the-counter supplements to help, but I really want to become healthier. I also have a hard time losing weight. I've been working out 5 days a week and eating healthy for 4 months, but the weight loss has been very slow. Where do I start?
What is the process of weaning off a low dose of thyroid medications after 15 years if my TSH is now up to 8.35 and my T4 is in range?

I also don't get enough calories either way and am trying to eat more meat.
