question on lab values

[Guest guest]

I got my most recent labs back, though I may have to call and ask for the ranges. On the internet, all the numbers seem to contradict from one standard to the next. Anyways, my TSH was 0.01, my FT4 was 1.1, and my FT3 was 4.

It seems from what I can remember, that's a bit low on the FT4, and a bit high on the FT3, right? I can call and ask for ranges, but wondered if it seems a bit unbalanced?

To be honest with out ranges it is more or less a shot in the dark

guessing.. I have seen a few people lately post a smaller range for

FT4..so if your lab switched to the new method, range etc.. you

maybe low, high or somewhere inbetween.

When you get the ranges you want to figure out what percentage you

are in range in order to compare T4 to T3..ie.. range 1-3..2 is 50%..
