    i always take aleve for headaches but I dont want to screw up my test,, what do you guys think?? after a little reading I dont know

    aleve:

    Naproxen is in a group of drugs called nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Naproxen works by reducing hormones that cause inflammation and pain in the body.

    reduces prostaglandin"?????

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prostaglandin

    maby I will just put up with the f***in headache.

    Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (also called NSAIDs) stop cyclooxygenase enzymes (also called COX enzymes) in your body from working. COX enzymes speed up your body's production of hormone-like substances called prostaglandins. Prostaglandins cause the feeling of pain by irritating your nerve endings. They are also part of the system that helps your body control its temperature

    well got the results back about three hours after they drew, I was going through them and by the free test instead of a number it said ("in lab") so i ask the girl what does that mean? she says, "thats a mail out it will be back in seven to ten days". WTF..

    I had some high levels

    neut 8.3.....................range:1.6 -7.4
    lymph 4.3.............................1.0-4.0
    hdl-r 70...............................40-63
    chol-chem 214.......................125-200
    wbc 14.1.............................3.6-9.2

    everything else was in range
    free t4 1.29
    tsh 1.02

    so i guess now its hurry up and wait..

    Doh! If there is one thing I hate, it's hurry up and wait.

    So is your doc going to hook you up with that number?

    Because i've seen cases where if it is in the "normal" range they wont budge. But not all docs are created equal.
