Is it possible for your doctor to run a full medical workup on you including a complete blood count?
Hello Rohag,

When I first went to my docs at the beginning they did a blood test to check my thyroid, it came back with no issues but no full count.

I will ask at my next appt to arrange to get retested and to include a full blood count.

Thank you for your response Rohag
