When you consider the new (as of 2003) AACE TSH ranges are (0.3-3.0),

the assertions that having a TSH of less than 0.5 is indicitative of

hypErthyroidism are a bit silly:

I thought using " punkin " was far more politically correct that what I

could have used. Remember, I can make a sailor blush and run away.
