> A lot of labs and doctors are still way behind the times in terms of thyroid. The American Academy of Clinical Endocrinologists changed normal for TSH to .3 to 3 a while ago but the lab at my HMO STILL lists up to 5.5 as normal and the GP`s go by that. Dealing with doctors is such a pain-you have to massage their precious egos so carefully to get what you need. Cecilia
Ain't it the truth! Most of them are in the dark ages when it comes to thyroid treatment.k
