Morning 8 to 9 AM . Thyroid hormone secretion has circadian rhythm.

Whether to take thyroid medicine or not to take on the day of blood testing ?
Levothyroxine half life is 7 days. If medicine is not taken than it will not make much impact. T3 half life is 18 to 72 hours.

TSH ELISA test is better. NABL accredited laboratory is recommended. Do not keep changing lab.
Every lab has different reference range. Suddenly if your reports vary than laboratory change might be needed.
