Australia

I have vitiligo, but been having issues with fatigue, non sleep etc. My doctor got my bloods tested for Thyroid Antibodies and the TPAb was 182.8, and the TgAb was 7.7. First thyroid test TSH was 4.4, but the second one was 2.3. She said that I need to watch my diet and to come back in 6 months for another test.
I have been trying to research about it online, but have been getting confused with numbers. Does anyone know where I can get a information online about the results?

I get all my answers from my skin doctor. He is very helpful and also my primary car doctor answers many questions. I am tired from medical work and sometimes the lab numbers get confusing.
