    You need to talk to your doctor. AACE recommended the new target range of 0.3 to 3.0. Yet, now, almost four years later, America's testing laboratories still use the old reference range of .05 to 5.5, and results are flagged by laboratories as abnormal only if they are outside the 0.5 to 5.5 reference range. And doctors remain divided.
    It depends on which thyroid test you are referring to. There are many but by all means, speak to your MD and ask which one he or she ordered and what they are looking for.
