Other Answers:
it a measurement of your un or over active thyroid level.. PEOPLE WITH HEALTH ISSUE O RECOMMENED GO TO WEDMD FOR YOUR AILMENTS OR SEE YOUR DR. !
Your TSH (not THS) level is a measure of thyroid stimulating hormone. To be on Thyroxine you must have had an underactive thyroid, which would mean you had a low thyroxine, and the bosy would try to compensate by producing more TSH, trying to get your thyroxine into the normal range. Your Dr would be more concerned about you thyroxine being in within the reference range than the TSH level. If he/she considers it to be a problem they would suggest a slight variation in your thyroxine dosage. If they haven't suggested that then they are obviously happy that your general health is OK with a slightly low TSH. You don't need to do anything about it, just follow your Drs recommendations.
