Help lease! Taken Thyroxine before blood tests.

[Guest guest]

I have heard not to take thyroxine 24 - 48 hours before blood tests. Could

anyone shed more light on this? I think I would feel a bit of a fraud if I did

not take them. I have never omitted them before and I am right at the bottom

end of normal on 100 mcg. Does Dr Peatfield recommend ommitting tablets before

bloods? Off to see him in November and will be taking these blood results with

me, so trying to get as good a set as I can! Also I have started myself on

adrenal support tablets. Does anybody know whether I should or should not take

them before I go for the blood tests? Or even better how long they would take

to show any effect in your body.

Thank you for taking the time to read my message.

Kind regards Heidi
