Can't find the original post but wanted to thank those who posted about biotin interfering with thyroid tests. I've been on T4 for over 20 years and additionally T3 for a couple of years & NO ONE ever mentioned this to me. Should be interesting to see what my results are after my tests tomorrow. My brother has thyroid issues as well, so i passed this info along.

Thanks.

The discovery is fairly recent and is only relevant if biotin is used in one of the assays.
