Thankyou for sharing your struggle w/ me, it really helped! Especially as the result of my t3 & t4s came back in the normal ranges .94 & .86 My doctor believes all my symptoms are related to smoking, as my hematocrit level was high. He dismissed all of my white blood cell counts. I’ve seen on here many tell you to get copies of your labs. After looking them up I can see my immune system has gone nuts. Though he gave me the extra push that I needed to quit smoking, I don’t think he wants to listen. Truly was thinking I must be crazy til I looked up the test then saw this post. THANK YOU it’s off to an endocrinologist for me.

Hi again, I look all the test up online last night.
BMP-test to chk heart failure
LANAD- chk autoimmune disorder
CBC- measure red/white blood cells platelet levels hemoglobin hematocit
SEDR- test to see how fast red blood cells settler in test tube in an he, inflammation causes increase in falling cells

So no TSH SINCE the one in 08.

Thanks for responding so quickly! Labs today were BMP, LANAD (antibody), T4 free, T3total, CBC w/ auto diff reflex to manual diff & SEDR sedimentation rate.
I read about the different test on several sites, the only one the I recognize here is the T4 free & T3total, I didn’t recognize the rest. Should I call about not having the T3free?
