**Monitoring Transfusional Iron Overload with serum [[ferritin]] and [[Iron]] level. Here is a list of recommended labs to monitor and prevent the devastating effects of iron overload in the thyroid, heart, and the effects of diabetes:
***Total T3
***Total T4
***TSH
***T3 uptake (instead of free T4)
***IGF-1(monitors acute fluctuations in insulin action and determines inadequate insulin treatment or poor control of dietary intake)
***NT-proBNP (aids in the diagnosis of left ventricular dysfunction in heart failure)
***Antithyroid Abs (Antithyroglobulin and AntiThyroperoxidase)
***Fructosamine (useful in situations where the A1C cannot be reliably measured – as with transfused persons)
***Vitamin D
