Normal TSH: They key word is "normal". Your TSH is normal, which means your pituitary believes your thyroid hormone levels are normal, and the pituitary is usually right. You list a number of autoimmune rheumatologic disorders. These may be responsible for your symptoms, rather than your thyroid. See your rheumatologist.
