Guest guest Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 >Hi Nick. I know I feel hypo too. This isn't working obviously. I take 22.5 mcg in the morning and 15 mcg in the evening of the Slow Release T3. Horribly under medicated then. That works out at 37.5. The sustained release can be half the strength of regular T3 so more like 20 if you are lucky! The majority of people on good quality, well absorbed, regular T3 need between 75 and 125 a day to feel non-hypo AFTER resistance has cleared. Some are under that and some over, I have been on 150 for a few months myself, I think I have some resistance that is not RT3 related but had a big clearance after being on T3 for 11 weeks showing I had a lot of RT3 issues too.. The STTM guideline for Natural is people being on 3 to 5 grains a day. Even that with the T4 as well has more T3 in it than you are on. (38 of T4 and 9 of T3 per grain) You need a Dr who will adequately medicate you, or to do what some of us do and import prescription free T3 from Mexico and take responsibility for our own health. Being under a competent Dr is preferable but self treating is an option, Nick -- for more information on RT3 and Thyroid Resistance go to www.thyroid-rt3.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 >My purpose and goal here though is to get off the Synthcrap forever. I guess I need to find another doctor. Anyone know a good one in Ventura/Santa Barbara CA? Sorry, I am in the south of England, (the original one that is) If you need a source for decent T3 e-mail me direct.

Guest guest Posted February 8, 2010 Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 OK I was wrong your ratio would be 40 which is good. -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/RT3_T3/ http://groups.yahoo.com/group/HypoPets/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 > >OK , here they are with the ranges: > >Reverse T3: 65 pg/mL (lab range: 90-350) > >Free T3: 2.6 pg/mL (lab range: 2.0-4.4) Ratio is fine but you are VERY hypo with FT3 at the bottom of the range. Most people need that number at the top of the range or a little over How do you feel?? Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
