Yesterday I was given antibiotics for a tooth infection. Today I am due full thyroid tests. I’m assuming i should cancel? Thanks

We shouldn't do thyroid tests whilst we have an acute infection, it's recommended to wait a few weeks until everything is back to normal.

Thank you for reply. I cancelled and will rearrange when I am back to normal. I have recently been diagnosed with Hashimotos and so wonder if I am allergic to filling they recently gave me.
