[Guest guest]

Hi :

No, no difference because they were numbers not percentages. You want your free

T3 in the upper quarter of the range, and your free T4 in the upper third of the

range. Same for TSH also, anything over 2 is considered high and suspect for

hypothyroid. My dgd's TSH was only 1.10, but her free T3 was lowish.

I hear you about the mix up on the thyroid panel for the kids, same thing

happened here and she ended up getting stuck twice. If the lab still has the

blood you can get them to run the right tests if you call them right away, if

not it has to be drawn again. Since the number of ASD kids reported to have

thyroid problems is 80%, I wouldn't be surprised if his turned up low.

I will try to post the correct ref. ranges for the kids, not exactly a computer

whiz, but will try, if not someone else will do it if we ask. Yes, post your

boy's numbers when you get them and I will help you figure out if they are okay

and what to do about it if they are not.

Good luck,

Hi ,

I love your name! This test is for me (34yrs)!! Does this change

anything? I believe my son has a problem also (strong family hx on

both sides) and he has thyroid antibodies. I just had a draw done

last week it was for the full panel and I asked at the lab to verify

that they were including the T3,T4. I was told they did and DAN

called with the results were just over two. She said that

was " within range. " And they did the wrong panel and didn't have

the free T-3,T-4. SCREAM!! If my DAN doesn't know how to interpret

the results when we finally get them, how am I going to get the rx

for him? He is three years nine months. Do you know they ranges

for that? Can I post them when I finally get them to do the right

test?

Thanks!
