Hello,
You have not mentioned the lab reports clearly with their units. Presuming standard units have been used, your daughter has a high TSH and a low T4 which is suggestive of hypothyroidism. Hypothyroidism is a condition in which the body is producing decreased amounts of thyroid hormones. She will need further tests and detailed evaluation by a paediatrician / endocrinologist for appropriate treatment.
Hope that helps. Wishing you good luck.
