Suggs,
Me again. Tests, tests and more tests -- Bah! I have no idea what a full thyroid workup, incl HPA would run, but I can imagine it's not cheap.
I opted for the empirical method, and fortunately my doctor agreed. A cursory CYA (cover your ass) of TSH, T3 and T4, then added the thyroid. Another TSH, T3 and T4 every six months.
Focus on the solution, not the problem.
