Jesse is hypo-thyroid

Mark called today as the first part of the results are back! It turns out that Jesse is indeed hypo-thyroid... I will talk to Mark again on Thursday, and then take Jesse in on Friday to pick up his medication!

T4 is really low (15.4... right at the bottom of the normal range... as Jesse is young it should be in the higher half which would be around 25 to 40). The T4 antibodies are really high.

It looks at the moment that Jesse has autoimmune thyroiditis...
