Guest guest Posted January 26, 2011 Report Share Posted January 26, 2011 Hi Dee, sorry about that, when I moderated your message the previous messages that I deleted have appeared, but the new parts that I had left have been deleted- i have no idea what is happening! however to answer you question- YES if you take T3 on the day of the test ,the result can be TWICE what it would be 24 hours later- T3 doesn't stay in the blood long- it is used very fast- though it's effects last for a couple of days. This is probably why there is concern with your results. thyroid treatment From: deetwigg@...Date: Wed, 26 Jan 2011 10:04:16 +0000Subject: Re: Result!!!! getting there on t3 alone at long last Forgot to ask the receptionist said my results showed unusual im a bit concerned about this does anyone know what this means carries on from below message xFrom: Dee <deetwigg@...>thyroid treatment Sent: Tue, 25 January, 2011 16:34:28Subject: Result!!!! getting there on t3 alone at long last As many of you are aware i have been battling with this damned graves disease for too many years and fought to get prescribed t3, after my tsh for 6 months was 38 i managed to get it down to 28 on t3, that was 2 months ago i got results back today from last weeks test and its 7.9, i nearly fell off my chair!! wow!!, should i stay on 80mgs or increase a bit whatever its starting to work i so hope my weight will follow, gig thankyou to you all for your ongoing suppost xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
