Guest guest Posted August 9, 2004 Report Share Posted August 9, 2004 The Free T3 range values only run to 4.3. There IS a glitch in the system evidently, because this is not T7, it IS Free T3 ranges. Mine was a 4.5, just over the normal. The glitch in the system is where it carried you to, but your values are still the Free T3, not the T7. The ranges on your report ARE the right ranges. Your Free T4 is too low, even though within so called " normal " , but you notice that your pituitary is still hounding your thyroid for more hormone, so you are NOT getting enough at all.

Guest guest Posted August 9, 2004 Report Share Posted August 9, 2004 The T7 is not on your test results. I believe that that one is an estimate of what they think is the Free T3. You don't need it because you have the real thing, and it's worthless anyway because it's only an outdated thing that is an estimate of what you already have. The glitch on the sight is the fact that they carried you back to the wrong place to view the explanation of what the Free T3 is. There are several things on the site like that, that lead you back to the wrong test name. I've just never said anything to them about it, but should, I guess. The tests you have in hand are the best ones you can get. Re: Healthcheckusa labs > Ok, so which one is the T7? > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 9, 2004 Report Share Posted August 9, 2004 Got it. They shouldn't offer it as part of the panel, then. I will let them know. > The T7 is not on your test results.

Guest guest Posted August 10, 2004 Report Share Posted August 10, 2004 You did both panels, did you not? That may be where the problem is. On the first panel, the one that a lot of mainstream docs would order, I can't remember whether the T7 is offered because I haven't looked at it lately. If it was supposed to be there, then it should be, but I just don't hold any stock in it, when you've got the direct thing there. If it was supposed to be there, though, and wasn't, I would question them as to why because you paid for it, in that case. Re: Healthcheckusa labs > Got it.
