Guest guest Posted June 27, 2011 Report Share Posted June 27, 2011 Firstly, labs do not send results back to the Dr. that say 'normal'. Doesn't happen! Dr.'s recieve results with your numbers, and a 'reference range'.Dr.'s are doing 'interpreting' for patients, when they tell them 'normal' cause thats all 'average' patient wants to hear.Don't be 'average' patient. If you had typical thyroid panel run, your Dr. is going by a 60 y.o. outdated and discredited test called the TSH test, to tell you your Thyroid is 'normal'.This is probably wrong! What you need to tell if your thyroid is producing enough thyroid hormone, is newer " Free T3 " and " Free T4 " tests.You can not accurately diagnose or rule out primary hypothyroidism based on the TSH test. In addition, even IF your thyroid IS producing enough hormone, your cells need Iron, in order for the thyroid hormone to get into the cells.Unless the thyroid hormone gets into the cells, your body can't utilise it. My wife has had frequent nosebleeds since high school, (20+ years). They have stopped, within the last year, as we finally dealt with her hypothyroid condition, which, based on this and other symptoms, she has had since high school. It has gone untreated all this time because Dr.'s continued to use this stupid TSH test as the primary rule in/rule out test for Hypothyroidism.Treatment reccomendations are too complex to deal with on one post, its a long conversation.Jim > > My recent blood tests were normal, including B-12 and thyroid. > > However. my " blood cell counts are stable but I have a > persistent significant anemia " (chronic anemia ?) and " quite > high protein spike " . > > I also have persistent bloody noses which may / not be related > to O2 use.
