Hi allI have my blood test booked for Friday at 8.10am

Is that time fine?

Not diagnosed and not on any meds.

I know only to have water only.

I only ask cause I have seen some posts say ideally just before 9am.

Thanks

For full Thyroid evaluation you need TSH, FT4 and FT3 tested

Very important to test vitamin D, folate, ferritin and B12 at least once year minimum
