Guest guest Posted September 22, 2008 Report Share Posted September 22, 2008 If you have a thyroid panel run every year (*7444 - THYROID PANEL (T3U, T4, FTI, TSH)), and the thyroid is within normal range...even mid- range, is iodine supplementation appropriate? I have adrenal fatigue (as mentioned by a chiropractor), extreamly sore breasts at times (I have to avoid caffine.)(this is not always linked to menstruation), and some lumps in my shins...possibly tumors? (I alerted my Dr. at the time I noticed them, but I don't want to run and have them cut out) I had a pre-melenoma skin cancer removed several years ago. People still comment on the scar. I had a surgery a couple of years ago where they found and biopsyed hardened lymph nodes. C Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 22, 2008 Report Share Posted September 22, 2008 Can you post your thyroid numbers here with ranges. I would be willing to bet that according to Holistic Doctors you are not " normal " .

Guest guest Posted September 23, 2008 Report Share Posted September 23, 2008 You didn't include range for the labs. I can't tell by looking at the numbers.
