A member asked:

What's the action should take with my recurrent thyroid gland with a t3 (liothyronine) 5.1 results before going for gallbladder stones surgery asap?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Need TSH level: You don't mention the units for the t3 (liothyronine) level. If it is a free t3 (liothyronine) with units of pmol/l, then 5.1 would be normal. The best test of thyroid function for someone without a thyroid and on thyroid hormone is the TSH level.
