Guest guest Posted March 9, 2011 Report Share Posted March 9, 2011 I'm hypothyroid as are my mum, her sister, female cousins and their female children. My son has just turned 13 and, for the past 6 months, has been having a terrible time waking up in the morning and he struggles to stay awake at school. He's been suffering from insomnia and has been feeling so rough, he's even stopped skateboarding to the extent he used to enjoy. His blood test results have just come back from the GP and the secretary says that one of the results, his bone result, was abnormal, so the GP needs to see him. The thyroid result is described as normal and I asked for the figures. TSH is 3.29 and T4 is 12.1. (I don't know the range yet, but presumably it is still the one where the TSH normal range is 0.something to 5.5) Could someone tell me whether those results are OK for a 13 year old boy, given his wider family history of thyroid problems? Thanks, Tracey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
