Re: Winston's Thread
Concerning the low T4 at 0.7... it looks like your vet is very good. Phenobarbital can indeed throw the T4 out of wack.
With that said, and the T4 test alone not being completely sufficient, it still wouldn't be a bad idea to have a full thyroid profile done. Then you would know for sure. The last time I looked, Hemopet charges a little over $100. They're the best.
Does Winston experience any of the classic symptoms of hypothyroidism, such as thinning hair, darkening of skin on the belly or cold intolerance?
