I am 19 and recently got my tsh levels checked for hypothyroidism, but my results came back normal (1.29 miu/l).this was shocking considering my symptoms and family history. what else could be going on?

Complex: TSH is just a screening test, if you or your doctor suspect very much that you have a thyroid problem, then a more extensive thyroid function/immune workup would need to be performed, better get seen by an endocrinologist to sort your case out, it can be not your thyroid, good luck

Might be hypothyroid: A TSH of 1.29 does not rule out thyroid issues at all! Ask your Dr. to check thyroid antibodies, Free T3 (liothyronine) and Reverse T3 (liothyronine) or find one who understands (Integrative doc) See http://tinyurl.com/nrww2qg and http://tinyurl.com/6mcwvzy and http://tinyurl.com/koyamo5 But many other conditions can cause similar symptoms like nutrient deficiencies,food allergies,chronic infections like Lyme disease etc
