Guest guest Posted March 6, 2005 Report Share Posted March 6, 2005 I learned from this message board that you need to do a free T3 and free T4 beside TSH. That is what I request for the last blood test for my wife but the OBYN doctor did not understand the T3 free..So she ordered the wrong test which was T3 uptake and not the free. She asked me three times are you sure there is such a test of T3 free? its not on the list. The doctor said as long as your TSH is normal that is what counts .......That indicated to me that yes she is a good OBYN doctor but did not know anything about thyroid except TSH. > In a message dated 3/5/2005 7:19:59 PM Eastern Standard Time, > f_kalkattawi@y... writes: > > > > > I think this happen partly because she is on T4 med only and not > > taking any T3 and better yet not taking any Armour.

She asked me three times are you sure there is such a test of T3 free? This is so sad. It makes me want to just bang my head against the wall. These idiots go to school for HOW LONG?
