[QUOTE="lowTengineer, post: 135643, member: 19210"] The reference you quoted also says "95% of normal individuals have TSH levels below 2.5 mU/liter." I see the upper ranges talked about a lot and the lower threshold of 2.5-3. If you were to test only TSH and get a result of 1.75-2, would this indicate that further thyroid testing is not needed? I haven't asked Defy but plan to at my next appointment. They have TSH included in the routine follow up labs. At what point does TSH indicate the need for further testing? Or is it a horrible test and nobody should ever use it? [/QUOTE]
