Thyroid test
I have had thyroid problem for 5 years now. I have been taking thyronorm 75 mcg. It has been 1 year since I got my tsh t3 t4 checked. I want to know the right way to get the test done. Should I get it done before or after breakfast, with or without taking the medication for a few days? Please help me out on this.
