Do you know how low it was - have you got any results you can post on here. Unless you can give us a bit more info then people will be unable to answer your question accurately.

Do Dr's normally give copies of test results out freely. Up until reading questions on this site I have not questioned my Dr. just trusted him to treat me. I shall now be asking for copies of test results etc. and doing more research myself.

You have to ask for them as they wont offer them (the least we patients know the better they like it) but it is essential to be able to manage your condition.

My endo now automatically send my results through the post (bless) even though the first time I ask I was told by his secretary that they didn't give patients copies of there results. A quick reminder that it was my right by law to have these results soon changed her mind.

Don't be surprised if you get the same response but if you do you can apply in writing for your tests (past, present and future). If you do have troubles and want a copy of a standard letter requesting results let me know.
