My mom has TSH of 41.2

Question

Asked for Female, 51 Years

Hello, My mom recently got her Thyroid Function Test done, her T3 and T4 were normal but her TSH came in at 41.2. Can I know what to do ahead? We're hesitant of going to any clinics or hospital at the moment as they're all already overburdened due to Covid-19. Please guide me.
