Does anyone know a flawless website to find usual and exceptional lab values(im doing a crust study on hypothyroid.)?



Answers:
The website below should help you.
When it comes to thyroid hormones, in that isn't much agreement over what constitutes normal. For example, typical TSH could be 0.6 - 6.0 mU/L, 0.3 - 3.4, 0.3 - 2.0, 0.4 - 4.0, or 0.5-5.0. I think it depends on the country and perchance even the clinic. (If you're getting thyroid tests you enjoy to have them done at one and the same lab every time.) Also, it is necessary to check Free T3 and Free T4 and for thyroid antibodies such as anti-peroxidase. Evidently these aren't other done. Shocking, really, since hypothyroidism can cause depression and other problems. You'd infer doctors would do a full battery of test in suspected cases formerly sticking people on Prozac.
Try the site www.labtestsonline.org to look up the hollow majority of clinical tests and their results. Keep surrounded by mind that thyroid tests are disreputably lab dependent and that several tests are needed frequently to accurately assess thyroid function.
