Anti TPO results

Hi, I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's Hypothyroidism 2 years ago. My anti TPO was 320 at time of diagnosis, then >1300, 1-2 years ago, and latest 180 in Oct 2025. But my doc says it is good improvement on paper but doesn't help in thyroid performance. So I keep practicing the good thyroid hygiene with some hope. Doesn't the reduced levels of Anti TPO make much difference 🤔
