Blood lab statistics

[AJWS6]

I was just sitting here thinking, would be wonderful for those with thyroid disorder/no symptoms, to post thier labs results.  Opposed to normal lab results = severe symptoms.  Millions have thyroid disoder, but only those not doing well, post thier struggles on the internet.  I've been researching online for years and never came across a thread anwyhere, I feel perfectly normal, my labs are.......  Such as a friend in the past, whom was doing outstanding never returned to share lab results.

Many opinions from physicians, endo's, np, etc...... sharing thier beliefs, but no examples of treatment/labs, if a person was unwell,  became well again.  I see videos of patients claiming thier thyroid symptoms practically disappear, but no blood labs to illustrate differences unwell to restoring health.  

I should have written this in a journal, but others may have thoughts as well, maybe.

You are correct about the lack of feedback from people feeling well.  In general, however, I would say that  for adequately treated hypothyroid patients you would find that their Free T4 was at least mid-range, Free T3 in the upper third of its range, Reverse T3 around mid-range, TSH suppressed below range, morning serum cortisol in the upper half of its range, Vitamin D >50 ng/mL, B12 in the upper end of its range, and ferritin at least 100.  You can confirm all  this in the following link.

People who are well don't come to sites like this looking for help because they don't need it.  In that case, it's unlikely you'll find those willing to post normal labs with no symptoms.  Those that do come here for help and get well, leave and only come back when they need help again.  They don't come back and post their normal labs and/or tell us they've gotten well; we simply assume that when they disappear.

On the flip side, I'm sure some get frustrated and simply leave, feeling they will never get well and are doomed to a life of never-ending illness.
