Morning all,
After visiting a nurse yesterday for a pill check (contraceptive) I chatted with her about menopausal symptoms as def not been myself lately.
The appointment was extremely rushed which was annoying and she was pretty unsympathetic..... she suggested I go for blood tests (I showed her a screenshot of a list of things this site said I should ask forrelating to my under active thyroid) and her reply was "she didn't know what T3 and T4 are so I won't be tested for them'!!!!!!
So, on my blood form she has ticked:
Electrolytes
Liver
Non fasting
Glucose
Thyroxine
FBC
B12
Folate
Vitamin D
So looks like I won't be getting T3 or T4 - can I demand this does anyone know?
I have tests booked 7.20am Weds 8th August so my last Thyroxine tablet will be Tuesday morning yes??
Thanks everyone
