thyroid my 2 year old son's labs

[Guest guest]

I posted about a week ago about my son's labs. He has lots of strange things

going on. He is high in copper and lead, he stopped eating a year ago and drinks

pediasure - just diagnosed with lymphoid hyperplasia (gut inflammation) also has

reflux. He has constipation mixed with looses stools as well as very little

appetite (even with pediasure). When we were recently doing some testing I asked

for a thyroid panel to be done. They only checked the TSH and the Total T4. I

then asked for a full panel to be done. The only difference is that with the

first labs they were done at 8:30 am and he was fasting and the second ones were

at 10:30 am and he was not fasting. Below are the results - do I need to treat

him? What does this indicate? My pediatrician won't treat and isn't worried

and it is taking us until August to get into a pediatric endocrinologist.
