    You should call your doctor’s office and ask them to sent you the printout of your lab results — that way you’ll have your value and the lab’s reference ranges.

    check with your doctor’s office and possibly the lab that proccesses your bloodwork. “normal” range varies from lab to lab. I found that my insurance’s preferred provider lab (100% covered) has higher normal range listings than the lab my endo preferrs, because they was a 10-15 ng discrepancy in the normal ranges, I decided to go back to the endo’s standard lab. I feel that to me, it’s worth the extra 10-20 bucks every 8-10 weeks to have results that agree with my endo’s listings. Nomatter when you start paying attention to your labs, it’s good to keep records of them for yourself.

    It’s been a long time since I checked the board (Yes, we do get on with our lives when we feel “normal” again). In the search, I could not find the new normal TSH range. Once again, please.

    The normal range for TSH is given on every blood test form that is returned to you. It will vary, slightly, from one lab to another, depending upon what materials are used to run the test. You need to get a copy of your own report, and you should find the information there.
