Return to the doctor: Lab test results are just numbers, without much meaning unless one can see the whole picture of the patient's situation. Thus, a patient should return to her doctor for evaluation and treatment of thyroid problems. Having a TSH level of 6 may mean her thyroid gland is not producing enough thyroid hormone (which then causes the brain to respond by producing more TSH, thus causing a high TSH level).
