What companies might be best for this test please? however, need a blood draw not a fingerprick draw as it doesn’t suit me.

We don't recommend testing reverseT3 as it doesn't tell you anything useful, it is just T4 that has been inactivated

Here's a chat about it...

Blue Horizon. Reverse T3 waiting time for results is 3 weeks which is pretty standard.

Once you go through to the payment bit you get options to add extras

They are doing 15% discount this weekend... CELEBRATEBANK15.

Just to say I've used Blue Horizon for this test and everything went very smoothly. The only thing which wasn't OK was the instructions which are a bit contradictory as to who posts the blood back to the company. It's your responsibility to post the package back to Blue Horizon.
