Hi,I've had a number of blood tests lately since ive had panics,i think they can tell a lot from a sample although you have certain tests for different things like liver,thyroid etc..i was actualy diagnosed as diabetic once from a blood test and i dont have it now!Saying that a the time i had lost alot of weight and was eating a lot of cakes and suggery things to regain it,so may have detected the sugar,if it makes you feel beter i would have another test,i have one every now and again at the surgery anyway and usualy all clear.

Hi C

I had a full blood test done a couple of weeks ago, it was for thyroid, liver cholestrol but didnt include a hormone. apparently the hormone test is done seperatley. Why dont you give your surgery a call and ask what tests where done(full blood count etc) and what the results mean?

I rang my surgery up last week for the same reason because i was unsure and they where very helpfull.

Love

I've had 3 blood tests recently testing everything possible all have come back fine. I had a 5 minute appointment with my doctor, but he is really good he spent 30 minutes discussing what they all meant and how it ruled this and that out. But i still worry.

If the blood test was to check thyroid levels, and that's all the request form had on it, then the test would only be for that. Different coloured bottles are for different tests and so, for example, the bottle for a full blood count is lilac. Next time you have a test you can ask the nurse what is requested on the form.
Hope that helps.

As previous post says the tests you had done were very specific - for thyroid hormones and whatever other hormone test was done???

If you are really worried go back and ask you Dr for some mot blood tests just to put your mind at rest. My Dr is happy to this for me once a year at least and she does - full blood count - liver and kidney function - esr .
I have an underactive thyroid so have my levels checked every 6 months anyway.
