Guest guest Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 For the last week I've been taking 4 gr. NT, taking 25 mg HC for 2 months now. My temps are fairly level but they are not wanting to average past 97. After starting on HC 2 months ago my temps finally leveled out pretty good and I was able to dose up to 3 gr. and eventually to 3 1/2 gr. as I was still having cold hands/ feet, major weight regainswollen feet/ankles and loosing hair so after another month I dosed up to 4 gr. I'm not having cold hands/feet now but I can feel my core is still cold and my other symptoms are still there and don't understand why my temps aren't going up with a higher dose. This doesn't make any sense to me, even though I'm taking more thyroid it doesn't seem to be getting into my system very well. Take a look at my free t3 levels from both tests in June and November 09. Any idea's of what I could do to get the meds into my system better? I take iodine, selenium, etc..perimenopausal .My last labs at 3 gr. were taken in Nov 09 and were as follows:tsh .020 range .40-4.6 (same levels from June 09 test)free t3 3.18 range 2.4-4.2 (down from June 09 test of 3.50)free t4 .76 range .61-1.27 (down from June 09 test of .77)ferritin 127 range 10-200 (up from 45.4 June 09 test)vit d 53.7 (up from 32 June 09 test)June 09 test results (not retested in Nov)Antithyroid peroxidase AB 205 range <35Thyroglobulin antibody <20 range <40vit b12 796 range 180-914RT3 208 range 90-350Saliva test results taken in May 09Morning 6.0 range 3.7-9.5Noon 1.2 range 1.2-3.0Evening .5 range .6-1.9Night .1 range .4-1.0 Kem in Eugene <º)))>< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
