16 year old daughter's test results

[Guest guest]

My daughter has been very tired, rather depressed and gaining weight, so I had

her tested. Everyone in my family has thyroid/autoimmune issues.

Here are her labs (also one from age 13). What do you think? Her doctor(gp) is

just having her take supplements at this time (iron,selinium, zinc, vit D, etc).

He thinks it's all stress related, including the high cortisol. He says she

needs to meditate and exercise. She is totally drained after school, no way is

exercise happening.

Do you think she should see my endo? What's up with high reverse T3? I

understand what it is, but do these labs say something to you?

Thanks,

Marla
