Stupid Netod, stupid doctor.

So, not only do I get told that my recent FT3 of 2.88 was " normal " when my

FT4 is at 1.9....

(I called the old doc's office)

But I get the 8am cortisol results back. Here are the guidelines for

interpretation...and this is by a CLINICAL source:

Interpret random serum cortisol concentrations within the context from which

they were obtained. (For example, adrenal insufficiency is unlikely in an

otherwise healthy individual with an 8:00 am serum cortisol concentration

more than 10 mcg/dL. Yet a serum cortisol concentration less than 18 mcg/dL

in a sick and stressed patient highly suggests adrenal insufficiency.)

Do I NOT look sick and stressed to you?? I weigh 88 flipping lbs! HELLO!

Mine was a 14.0 and they are calling this normal because it is above

10...the high range is 28...and this is when my cortisol is supposed to be

at it HIGHEST??!!??

They will do nothing for me, and Dr Ruth is at a conference until Monday.

I am P*SSED to all F% & $%^ & * H%^L
