Brief Answer:
About high TSH;
Detailed Answer:
Hello and thank you for asking!
I have gone carefully through your concern.
For ages over 65 years, TSH should not be treated when it is up to 10 mUi/ml and there are no signs and symptoms of hypothyroidism (feeling cold, weight gain, dry skin, constipation, low heart rate ect).
You should keep checking TSH every 6 months.
Hope the information will help.
Best wishes,
