Yeah; a lot of doctors and labs don't use the new guidelines. It's frustrating. Even with the new reference range, some docs will tell you that while a TSH of either .3 or 3 is considered "normal," most of their patients feel at their best with a TSH closer to 1. Depending on a doctor's attitude, it may be up to the patient to insist that dosing decisions are based, not just on what's "normal," but on how the patient feels.
