Low Normal...

Why couldn't the vet actually look at the paperwork when I called him about her results.

A package from my mom came today and it contained Bailey's official thyroid results from MSU. First of all, it was kinda cool to see how the paperwork was all official and contained ALL of her information in addition to the "official result" they sent to OFA. MSU is cool! :-)

Free T4 range is 8-26. Guess what her reading is? Yup, 8. Can we say "VERY low normal" yes we can!

Free T3 is low too (4.2 with the normal range being 4.5-12.0).

KV is sending me Dodds stuff so I can write letter to vet and send information with it about treating low normals. Only glitch is she doesn't have power right now, so it'll be a few days.

CERFs are scheduled for both dogs on November 15th. I'm hoping I can schedule Buzz's chiropractor appointment for that day too, just later. CERFs are at 8 & 8:15 am... hour and a half drive, yuck!

Bailey's thyroid came back "normal" (I'm still waiting for it to go up on OFA). Official OFA paperwork is at home, mom sent me the MSU results in the mail today so I should be able to look at those soon.

Looking at sending Buzz's thyroid blood to Dr. Dodds because it's not a whole lot more expensive than sending it to MSU, and I think it would be very beneficial to have her actually read the results.
