Here's the test results I got from my primary

THS 1.42 (L=0.40- H4.50)

T3 UPTAKE 36 (L=22- H=35)

FREE T4 INDEX (T7) 3.3 (L=1.4-H=3.8)

T3 TOTAL 69 (L=76-H=181)

VIT D Q,WT (OH)2 TOTAL 48 (L=18-H=72

VIT D3 1,25 (OH)2 48 (optimal > or = 30 ng/ml)

VIT B12 >24 (low >34, borderline 3.4-5.4, normal >5.4

.... That's all he would give me, again this fit didn't know what ferritin is, thanks all!

Good grief! What ancient out-of-date universe does your doctor/supplier of tests live in? Free T4 index went out of use over 35 years ago. It isn't a valid test and it only hangs on where you pay for tests because two have to be done to get one result so you pay twice over. Your T3 seems low, but free T3 is the test to do, because you may have unusual blood T3-carrying proteins. From that lot of thyroid results excepting TSH, the only remedy is to find a window and throw them out. Get a direct free T4 and free T3 test done instead.

Wow!!! Out of date?! That's insane, so as I'm understanding, forgive me if I'm wrong I'm going through a lot right now, these results are invalid, and don't really show anything, right? Thanks all!
