ThryoTROPIN: is a synonym for thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH). This hormone, produced by the pituitary gland, regulates thyroid function. Normal results for adults, in most labs, are 0.4-4.2 mU/L. This is the well-recognized/accurate test for hypothyroidism; a total thyroxine can sometimes add information.An H. pylori antibody blood test only measures past infection. Biopsy, stool antigen, breath test better

Thyroid: Please have your doctor send blood off for measurement of TSH, free T4, and free T3 (liothyronine). The results will help your doctor control your thyroid. If not controlled cardiac issues might develop so please don't delay.
