python + given dataframe series, get index

I am currently working on a function for: dataframe.apply(function, axis=1).

I need to reference the value of the index (ie, 0, 1, 2 etc, whatever the index is in the row that's passed above). 

def function(row):
    whatstheindex = row.index?
    return whatstheindex

I can't figure out to reference that though. I've tried row['INDEXNAME'], I've tried using:

float(row.index.get_loc(row.loc[:,:,row['ROWVALUE']].index[0]))

but ROWVALUE is non-unique, and I think its returning more than one index? The error I got was:

IndexingError: ('Too many indexers', u'occurred at index XYZ')

Have you tried row.name? The rows are pandas series in the apply function
