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

by skeeterknitwit, Mar 07, 2009 05:35PM

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.
