My doc said that the TSH level and T4 level is in the range. But what about subclinical hypothyreosis ? I heard that could play a role in depression. So what is as normal thyroid function ? Why didnt my doc checked about the T3 level ? There is a syndrome called "low T3 syndrome" (TSH is in the range, dondt know how it affects T4). Is this a prediction for a successfull augmentation with T3 or T4 ?
Any experiences or explanations ?
Thanks

> Which folder plase ?At the top of the PB page, there is a link to several folders at psycho-babble-tips, which is a yahoogroups.com site where PB participants have put together folders with links to previous discussions here and to other resources on the web. The thyroid folder has a link to a resource on what tests there are and how to understand the results, etc., among other resources.
Good luck.
