#8 I believe is PDW platelet Distribution Width.
From what I've read it is not immediately dangerous. But it does raise the question as to why it is happening. Since you didn't put your TPC in there I'm going to assume it's normal, both of these have to be considered. Normal platelets are formed in the body's bone marrow spaces from the broken fragments of the very large cells called megakaryocytes which try to produce an adequate number of the platelet fragments so very important for proper blood clotting in case of any bleeding. If the body platelet count is too low, the megakaryocytes rush to produce platelets and, in so doing, the PDW of newer platelet fragments increases as larger chunks of the megakaryocytes break off. It normally occurs after blood loss from surgery or any other condition which depletes the body's number of platelets. A Complete Blood Count (CBC) result is important for its hemoglobin value which detects any significant blood loss. Of course, your physician should explain your lab test findings and answer all your questions.  I am in no way an expert on any of this just looking up answers answered by people, and of course tons of panels done for me and my father. I'll let the experts on here talk to you about hypothyroidism and the relationship between that and triglyceride and lipoprotein. Good luck with everything. Hope everything works out for you.

Please provide reference ranges for the T3.  Reference ranges vary lab to lab and have to come from your own report.

Also, please verify item # 8... is that supposed to be RDW instead of PDW?  If so, please provide a reference range - again, ranges vary lab to lab.  That's not a thyroid related test.  

If # 6 is a typo, what should it be or isn't it supposed to be there at all?

Is there a T4 test, somewhere on your report?  Typically, if a doctor orders a TSH and T3, they will also order a T4.  If there is one, please provide that result and its corresponding reference range.

I did a quick search and could not find any relationship between the use of dapoxetine and elevated cholesterol or TSH.  Once you've answered the questions already asked, we can provide further advice on how to proceed.

Do you have any symptoms of hypothyroidism?  Those might include, but are not limited to weight gain/inability to lose, fatigue, constipation, cold intolerance, hair loss, body aches/pains, swelling/edema, facial puffiness, etc.
