Now here is something that will ignite controversy
Is there is “best buy” for TFT’s
My endocrinologist is quoting at me the guidelines published by the
British endocrine society/RCP and considers that two tests should be
done on all patients.
His view is TSH plus fT3
I read these as saying that diagnosis should be conformed by a free
hormone e.g. TSH then fT3 or fT4 if the TSH is not “normal”.
Questions
Does everybody measure 2?
Has anyone audited what is the best policy ( I mean real audit, not a
survey)?
Is there any outcome data?
What is published?
Yours awaiting illumination
