Reverse T3

Hi all,

Happy New Year!

Just going to send off to Blue Horizon for a Thyroid blood check.

The new Thyroid 12 includes reverse T3 as an addition.

Could someone let me know what me the benefit of this extra test is? Otherwise I'll just plump for the Thyroid 11.

Arab. 🙂

Arab,

Waste of money if you aren't taking Levothyroxine.
