Is it normal for a thyroid blood test to leave T3 & nmol/L. blank?

Often impossible to get Ft3 tested on NHS

Increasingly rare to even get Ft4 tested

Hence so many test thyroid and vitamin levels privately

+1 for testing privately. From doing them I found myT3 was only about 10% of range even though T4 was at top of range.

T3 does not even appear on the blood forms here! GPs are not even allowed to ask for it, even if you take T3!

Not what you're looking for?
