Well, here are my #'s and I am questioning if they are normal or not now. If any of you can help, it would be greatly appreciated.
Total T3, 110
Free T4, 0.8
Free T3, 2.8
TSH, 1.62
Thanks SO much! |
I think the first thing is how do you feel? Are you having symptoms of thyroid disorders? If you're doing fine and you don't feel bad or have symptoms, then I wouldn't worry too much about your thyroid values as long as they're within normal ranges. Your lab report will have the normal ranges listed on it. You can always have them tested again too, they might have been temporarily off. Remember that everyone's ideal hormone levels are different, which is why there's a range of normal. If you feel like you are having symptoms, then it's definitely something to pursue. But if you aren't, then I wouldn't worry.
