Hi Dr.
My anti TPO test result is 609. What does that mean? Is it something to worry about? What should I do now? My dr is out of station for some time. Please suggest.
Thanks 😊

It points towards an autoimmune thyroid disease which will cause your thyroid gland to function lesser than normal
Do full thyroid function tests if not done - TSH , Free T 4 and T 3
If there is any swelling in neck requires a ultrasound of your neck
