    They will normally test my TSH and T4 levels. They also test my thyroid peroxidase (part of the thyroid cascade profile). You dont have to ask for specific tests, just ask your doc to test your thyroid levels and they should check off several boxes on the labcorp form (this could include thyroid cascade profile, T4 or TSH).
