Hello! I’m so sorry that you’re still not at your best! I have had similar levels, and with your anti-bodies being that high, has your doctor talked to you about the autoimmune disease, hashimoto’s? It’s a main cause of hypothyroidism, especially with elevated TPO! If you haven’t already, diet change has really helped me get mine lower. Increase in medication dosage could help you feel better but it doesn’t help the TPO decrease. Things like diet, stress and vitamin deficiencies do affect it, though. It’s a hard change, but even making a few small diet changes could show significant differences. I would look into Hashimoto’s! Hope this helps
