Bloodwork

[smbpd23]

I just got my blood work back. The way I read it is not what i wanted.

Thyroid
TSH 1.590 .450-4.500 is normal

Not sure if this is good or bad. My doctor is not one to go out on a limb. Its either in the good range or not.

Testosterone
Serum 405 280-800 is normal

I am thinking none of this is good and may be attributing to my muscle loss and fat gains. Can anyone help breaking this down in layman's terms? Thanks!!!!

Don't know much about the thyroid but the test is low. Testing I had done a few years back was at 443 and it said normal was 400-1080. I am on the very low end and researching it I have the natty test level of a 74 yr. old man. This is totally going to lead to fat gains, loss of libido and lethargy.

You will be dead within a week.

i think the new tsh standard range is narrow, if it is 2.0 or higher, your hypo heres a good article for ya http://www.drlam.com/articles/hypothyroidism.asp?page=3


my tsh was at 1.99, so i think i need to talk to another doc to get a second opinion. maybe a endo?

mcg not mg. Micrograms not Milligrams. Just want everyone to not think you ever take 25 mg of thyroid t4, it is given in mcg!!!

A Test Serum of 405 is actually very good if that is natural. From the range they give you it makes it look like its on the low side but in all actuality thats not the case. The highest natural test serum levels I have seen was in the 500s and I have seen hundreds of BW results. Avg I saw was 200-250. I even had one 35yr old guy come up at 93!
