im having some issues with metabolism and was wondering what the more experienced guys on here had to say. I dont have health insurance so I cant "ask my doctor" which test do you guys think you give me the best outlook on thyroid function. I would assume the second option but I dunno for sure.

-Thyroid Profile w/ TSH

-Thyroid TSH w/ Free T4 & Free T3

-Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone (TSH)

-Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone (TSH) and Free T4

-Thyroid-Stimulating Immunoglobulin (TSI)

-Thyroxine (T4)

-Thyroxine (T4) Free direct

-Tri-iodothyronine (T3) Total
 
There is also this test for $199

A week is fine to allow the T3 to clear.

I don't have a thyroid, as it was removed because of cancer.

Here is what my endo orders when I have tests. I appologize that I didn't format them better and/or delete the unnecessary stuff, just trying to give you a quick answer while I have time.

The results of my test don't matter. I was just showing you what he tested.

Once you get tests done, we/us/Google will be able to interpret the results for you.
 
Situational Dependent....

It really depends on each individuals situation... all the tests you listed do have their time and place... usually when first beginning with test's, you start with the most basic/likely/standard and go from there depending on results.

In the ICU, we start with simply: TSH, Free T4, Free T3

I would go with those three first and re-assess on your results.

There are BASICALLY two types of hypo-thyroidism...
Primary- TSH test: the hypothalamus is messed up
Secondary- free T4/T3- the conversion of bound t4/t3 is messed up

I would go with those three first and re-assess on your results.

thanks man. that test is only like 79 bucks to test those 3.
 
blood sugar
