Patient scenario in family medicine NP

[TheFuture09]

-Below 30 male presents for physical exam. TSH LEVEL IS ELEVATED. 6 point something.

Next step? And should patient be started on THYROID MED.

other Questions: Do you All Check male TSH annually??? If yes why if no why not??

-Does anybody have a good reference/PowerPoint/ with how to manage diabetic medications. Just how and when to add things, when to refer to endeocrine.

You would be suprised why I asked that question and may have not have responded with your initial response. Do you really want to know the information or do you want to use that to bash/make yourself seem so much brighter than another NP for asking questions? Life is short, what is the point of being that way?

Sure I'm intrigued.
