[QUOTE="pre-predb, post: 2492368, member: 545398"] TSH of 10 would indicate hypothyroidism. Your T4 sounds in range but could probably be higher. Might be worth going back to the doctor to discuss this. You can also get some good advice on Thyroid UK forum (similar to this). Make sure you get a print out of your blood results as they can then then comment on them. I would say Hypothyroidism would explain - at least partly - your rise in Hba1c From what you say, you seem younger than me! I'm 64 and was diagnosed with Hashimoto's when I was 50, which is quite classic, but I think it probably started after the birth of my second child - when I was 34. My Hba1c has only been tested in the last 4 years and has never been below 39 whatever I do with low carb and exercise. I used to run marathons but only do short distances now, although I jog every day. I also do HIIT exercise, and other classes, at the gym and walk and cycle a lot. But nothing makes any difference :( [/QUOTE]
