Guest guest Posted September 24, 2008 Report Share Posted September 24, 2008 You don't seem to have a measure of Free T3. If you feel good, how come you're still sick? I don't mean to be facetious, but low thyroid impacts many, many systems in our body, including immune, cardiovascular, endocrine, reproductive, neurological, etc. so since you're still sick, it would seem that while you obviously feel better (subjectively), you might have room to feel alot better. Your Free T4 is just barely within range. Also, do you have Hashi's? If so, it's often better to keep the TSH to 1.0 or less - at least that's where most folks find the get the biggest resolution of symptoms. Be well, B. > > > Hi > I got my recent labs back.... > I have been on armour 120mg for 1.5 yrs now > we've increased it over the years since 2003. > I feel good at this level. even tho I am still sick in other areas. > > these are my results.... what do you think ?? > Test Description Result Range Units > Thyroxine (T4)001149 5.6 4.5-12.0 ug/dL > T3 Uptake001156 27 24-39 % > Free Thyroxine Index001164 1.5 1.2-4.9 > TSH004264 2.105 0.450-4.500 uIU/mL > > > thanks > Lin > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
