Thank you for your comments. My labs are for Hypoglycemia not hypothyroidism,my bad. My issue is my blood glucose is so low in the mornings I get shaky and weak unless I eat during the night ,I cannot schedule lab visits,we stand in line and wait here until it’s my turn.

Hi @krilloil - That sounds like it must be so difficult. Are you getting your care at Mayo Clinic? I do not know your medical history, but you could mention a "hypoglycemic bundle" to your physician and see if this is a test they recommend. When this is ordered by a doctor, you get a card that allows you literally skip the line at any Mayo lab location.
