Check your labs-third post

Well, now I am confused. Have had hypothyroid symptoms for years.

March 1, 2017, discovered my TSH was elevated 2 years ago but this fact was missed by doctor. He retested TSH on March 1. Asked for full panel but only got TSH. TSH NORMAL on March 1, two days ago.

WHAT DO I DO NOW? I see him again in 5 weeks.

I am afraid that the TSH is not a terrible reliable test, I pay privately and do several more, I am also a member of Thyroid UK. MaryF

Thank you. I researched cost of full thyroid panel and it is range of 300 USD.

My medical expenses currently run in the 1000-1500 USD range due to the gamma globulin monthly for CVID. And that 1000-1500 is only a small percent of actual costs with Medicare Insurance and a Supplement Insurance. Nancy
