Question 1

Hi, yesterday I gave my blood sample for a random test. When the report came I was shocked. Is there any big problem? Do I need to consult the doctor for this? The lab report from Portea shows RDW CV 14.4 high with a normal range of 11.6 to 14.0 percent, eosinophils 9.1 high with a normal range of 1.0 to 6.0 percent, absolute eosinophil count 0.70 high with a normal range of 0.02 to 0.50 thousand per microliter, tri iodo thyronine T3 is 97.63 with a normal range of 60.0 to 181.0 nanogram per deciliter, thyroxin T4 is 6.60 with a normal range of 3.20 to 12.6 microgram per deciliter, and thyroid stimulating hormone ultrasensitive is 7.244 high with a normal range of 0.55 to 4.

Question 2

I am 66 years old. My thyroid test was done on an empty stomach after taking my thyroid medicine. The results show TSH is 3.65, T3 is 0.65 ng/mL (slightly low) and T4 is 5.96 microgram/dL (slightly low). I am taking 25 mcg of thyroxine daily. Are these results normal, or could they be inaccurate because I took the medicine before the test?

Question 3

Recently, I had a thyroid test. My T3 and T4 values are low, but TSH is normal. My hemoglobin is 10.5. I do not feel weakness or fatigue, but I am worried if this could be a serious problem, as I read it might indicate anemia. Also, for the past 2 months I have noticed pigmentation changes on my facial skin. Please advise.

I am feeling very sleepy, weak, and experiencing excessive hair fall. I thought these might be symptoms of a thyroid problem, but my test report shows a level of 3.01. The lab mentioned a thyroid disorder. Do I have a thyroid problem?

A TSH of 3.01 mIU/L is within the normal range (typically 0.4 to 4.5). If youre feeling very sleepy, weak, and have hair fall, consider checking vitamin B12, D3, iron, and cortisol. Thyroid does not seem the cause here.
