I cheated on my thyroid labs and drank coffee (black) the morning of my tests. I've been started on Levothyroxine (0.05mg) but I suspect my tests weren't accurate. Thanks to these notes, I will find out what the VA (Veterans Administration) testing included. As to my Dr. exam, she briefly touched my throat in my post-lab exam checking for a goiter or something. I missed 4 days of the meds while waiting for the refill from the VA. I don't know if I should continue the meds while I seek a second opinion. At least this time I'll know more of what I'd like in the lab work. Thanks for the insight, Linda
