My friend is going to see her dr soon and she knows that I am hypo and asked me what tests she should ask for. Her dr is a royal idiot and I just don't remeber the exact names of tests she should ask for to make sure that it isn't her thyroid that is causing her problems. Thanks in advance.
Your friend needs to ask the doctor for a blood test to check her TSH levels. She may want to find a new doctor if she has lost confidence in his/her ability. Once the results come back your friend may need more tests depending on whether she is hypo or hyper. If her levels are normal then her doctor may have to investigate other conditions. The first step however is a blood test. Hope this helps!
