THS RESULTS

I JUST RECEIVED MY ANNUAL LAB RESULTS AND THERE IS A LINE ITEM FOR THS (THYROID STIMULATING HORMONE) WHICH IS NEW TO ME.  HERE IS WHAT IS ON THE RESULT REPORT:

THS          VALUE - 2.341     RANGE - 5.500        NORMAL - 0.350-

CAN YOU PLEASE EXPLAIN THIS TO ME?

TSH is ok, do you have symptoms? what about free T4?

I think what it actually says is TSH value - 2.31 Normal Range - 0.350-5.500.
You are within normal range, right in the middle.
Those lab sheets can be difficult to decipher if you've never seen them before.
