Blood tests on NDT

Hi all

I’m going to have a blood test next week for TSH, T3, T4, I am taking two grains of NDT first thing on the morning, I understand there has to be 8 to12 hours before blood is taken. Should I take one grain on the morning and one grain in the evening before the test?

Thanks

Peter

Yes. Time the second dose so that there is the advised time gap.
