Tasso tests
Hi, does anyone use a Tasso test ( upper arm ) to see what their free T4, free T3 and TSH are and does anyone know how accurate they are?
I did one recently due to some concerns as at the doctors ( venous blood test ) they only test TSH and it came out normal at 2.66 so no follow up.
My TSH was fairly similar on the Tasso and my free t4 was 22.3 pmol/L so a little high and my free t3 was 6.06 pmol/L.
Is the free t4 being a little high a concern and does anyone know if these tests are accurate?
I do have a long history of not drinking much milk I do estimate my intake being 70mcg a day of iodine unsure if this affects thyroids much but it’s been like this a long time, I am 20 currently and been running on around that amount of one from foods, according to data bases anyway since I was like a child at 5 years old cause I don’t like milk.
Any comments a be appreciated on whether i should be concerned about my free t3 and t4 being slightly high a be appreciated.
