got a renal scan done -GFR -75.4.

Hello.

Your latest reports of uric acid and serum creatinine are within normal limits. You have not mentioned your drug history, but uric acid can be controlled through a strict diet as well.

Your TSH is still high and thyronorm 50 mcg should do just fine. Repeat the test to check on your TSH in 3-4 weeks to observe a response of the medication and to see if you are improving. Everything else seems fine for now.

Hope this helped.

Take care.
