Test for hyperthyroid
I am suffering with hyperthyroidism for last 10 month.
I need to get thyroid profile (free t3, free t4. Tsh) thrice a month as thyroid levels are fluctuating. This test is very expansive. It cost me Rs 1350 from Medanta hospital, Gurugram and very difficult for me to afford it.
Can I do thyroid profile (total t3, total t4, tsh) as its a lot cheaper. Is it as reliable as free t3 free t4, tsh?
Also kindly suggest a lab in gurugram which is reliable and affordable.

If you have Graves (which seems likely),. Being male chances of remission are only 10%.
Free t4 is recommended. Lots of labs available. Choose any. Important is to make correct diagnosis and treatment options.
