Does Diagnos-techs do RT3? or ZRT? or just go with an ouside blood lab and get only cortisol done with saliiva?

[Guest guest]

With the change in the policy on thyroid testing (not that I'm

averse to giving blood , and the confusion surrounding how accurate

the saliva tests for hormones are for Diagnos-techs, should I get

those done at all, or just go to an outside lab and do blood tests

(or go with ZRT?) I'm particularly concerned as I didn't think DTI

did RT3, which I'd need to know about. Of course, the endo-from-hell

wants to run a whole bunch more tests anyway (blood of course) -

perhaps I'll let him, after telling him which I *don't* want, and

then check the RT3 box anyway.. He wouldn't be pleased that I was

still taking IsoCort, but he (should) be pleased that I successfully

weaned off of it..

Confused,
