New Lab Results!!!

[KD9ER]

Alright my Lab Results are back!  These were drawn on Dec. 31st.  Here are the results:

Lab Test:    My Value:              Lab Range:
Ultra TSH:      2.910                 (.465-4.68)
FT4                0.81                   (.81-1.58)
T3(not free)     128                     (80-200)
IGA                3.1                     <20 Negative
IGG              <1.0                     <20 Negative
ANA              Neg



So what does all this mean???  Haha...I'm trying to understand, but they threw me when they did the Ultra TSH and no Free T3!?  I've looked up some things on Ultra TSH and from what I've read there is no difference...is that right?  Another ?  Is my doc ok?  He seriously did not pull an FT3?!?  What the he// was he thinkin?!  

A little help would be nice, but is it possible---that my labs are FINALLY starting to show them what I've been complaining about all along!?  

Thanks-

Ok...I figured out what ALL the tests on my Labs meant!  Wow it took me a while, but I actually wrote it all down and analyzed optimum values and I'm doing pretty good except for the TSH and T4 as posted above.  

So Laura those IGG and IGA's were testing for Celiac Disease.  I'm negative.
Tested for Lupus---Negative
Mono---Negative
Rhumatoid Arth---Negative


So---Let's keep our fingers crossed for my Appt on Wednesday!!  Hopefully he now has a basis and will run more tests.

No, no meds here.  I've been in and out of doctor's clinics and ERs for the last 5 years with no luck.  Everything is always "normal".  I was just hoping that finally these labs would PROVE to the docs there is something going wrong.  I may not be totally off their charts, but I don't feel right.

Yeah the T4 is low.  It's on the lowest border of my lab's range.  I'm hoping my appt next week actually produces something positive for once.  The only antibody tests he did was the IGG and IGA but I'm not sure what those are...they may not even be antibody tests.  ???  

Thanks Laura!  :)

Did you have any of the antibody tests done for Graves or Hashimoto's? That would be important to have done....
You T4 level is low.....are you on meds?

Sorry one more!  I just read Stella's Post on Live Webcast and learned what the CRP result was.  _Thanks Stella_

So here's that result:  

CRP Ultrasensative: 1.2 mg/dL      Lab Range: (0.1--5.0)

Guess that means I need to have that looked into.  ?
