T3 blood test timing.

Please advise.

My appointment at the Drs tomorrow will probably involve a thyroid blood test. I usually take a 20 mg. T3 tablet twice a day at 7 am and 12 pm. But my appointment is about 4- 30 in the afternoon. What should I do about taking my T3 please?

Thank you for any help

Take your 7am dose - last dose of T3 8 - 12 hours before blood test.

Thank you.

So should I take both tablets at 7 am or should I take the second tablet after the blood test at around 5 pm?

Just take your usual 1 tablet
