[QUOTE="mstang67chic, post: 151622, member: 2459"] Re: Thyroid Usually, the normal range for thyroid levels are anywhere from 0-4ish. Some docs prefer them to be closer to zero, others are ok with it closer to 4, just depends on the doctor and the patient. The higher the level (hypothyroidism), the more you gain weight, feel tired and sluggish and basically your body just slows down. If your levels are lower, (hyperthyroidism) you are jittery, have problems sleeping and can't seem to gain weight. This COULD be what he was talking about although I don't know what the preferred level is for kids. If this is what he's talking about, ask your doctor. .9 - 1.0 seems like a good level to me but I'm only used to dealing with my levels as an adult. [/QUOTE]
