Brief Answer:
Attached report is normal

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
The attached report, Anti Tpo antibody test is normal, that's just rules out autoimmune type thyroid dysfunction.
I have gone through your previous reports as well. Your symptoms could be because of hypothyroidism or just due to dietary habits and sedendary lifestyle.
In your previous reports, there are two values of tsh, one is normal and other is abnormal. Either of two has to be false so you need to repeat TSH test from third and reliable lab like srl, lal path etc to confirm the finding.
If it confirm the abnormal level of TSH, then you need to be on thyroid supplements and if normal then no need to worry and have healthy lifestyle like low fat, calorie diet and regular exercises.
Hope this helps you and get back if you have any doubts.

Brief Answer:
No, it's not like that

Detailed Answer:
Normal range depends on the lab reference and you can see on the report that normal range for that lab is less than 60, so it a normal report. You could reconfirm the same finding in other lab as well.
You just need to repeat TSH level to see if any thyroid abnormalities are there or not. All the best.
