[QUOTE="madman, post: 209748, member: 13851"] This is where I stand when it comes to testing FT! I would not rely on the piss poor direct immunoassay let alone outdated calculated methods especially in cases of altered SHBG. Although the newer cFTZ algorithm (TruT) should give fairly consistent results I would prefer to rely on direct testing using the most accurate assays such as the gold standard Equilibrium Dialysis or Ultrafiltration especially in cases of [U][I]altered SHBG[/I][/U]. Again with a TT 1267 ng/dL and SHBG 34 nmol/L your FT will most likely be well over what would be considered the top end of healthy 16-31 ng/dL. Stick to whatever method suits your fancy. There are cheaper options! Nelson's discountedlabs uses Quest Diagnostics.
