words fail me!!! If the new ranges were adopted then I would fall into that

group that would be (miraculously, all of a sudden) hypo. This is the reason

However i have seen some UK hospital labs have issued directives in

response to the American decision saying that this was not a good

idea since it will increase the number of patients being treated for

hypothyroidism -and

therefore getting all meds free under the chronic illness scheme in

the NHS -so a possible political reason for not adopting the

guidelines.

That's a sad thing for them just blatantly saying that they don't care if

those who have thyroid problems get treated because of money, i.e., make up

stuff just to fit the budget.
