No.: This is normal. Unless you have risk factors for dysthyroidism it is probably not helpful to screen you every year.

It depends...: Most consider a TSH of 3.21 to be normal but the american college of endocrinologists now recognizes any value above 3 as a sign of hypothyroidism. But the diagnosis is based also on your symptoms, level of T3 (liothyronine) etc. See http://www.Netplaces.Com/thyroid-disease/hypothyroidism/blood-tests.Htm, http://thyroid.About.Com/library/links/blthyroid.Htm http://thyroid.About.Com/cs/shames/a/shamesthyroid.Htm.
