Guest guest Posted January 20, 2008 Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 I would say from your symptoms temps and BP falling you need more HC. MOst of us that have similar symptoms mnee d25-35mg daily. You are also quite hypothyroid still but the T3 loks higher in your blood due to low cortiosl. I am betting the bottom fell out and you have transitioned ot a higher stage (worse) or AF since the saliva labs. You should also ask for aldosterone testing as I see in one lab your sodiu was 139 which is too lwo and that same lab showing very low potassium which is a compensatory thing the body does wiht long term low sodium. -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 20, 2008 Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 Thanks Val! You are an angel to read my post & reply. I so appreciate you & I'm glad that you are going to have some help moderating. I don't know how you do it, but I'm sooo thankful for you & everyone else here that is so willing to share. What do you think about the Hemoglobin & Hematocrit. Does this mean that I don't need to have ferritin tested? So would you up the morning HC dose to 10, then 5,5,5. Or should I go in smaller increments more times daily? Do you think I need to wait to add more Armour? I am so ready to feel better. Also as far as I can tell I've never been tested for Thyroid antibodies. Do you see anything in the lab results I do have that indicate I might need those tests and/or RT3? Again, thanks Val & God bless you! Hopefully I will be able to make some sense out of this & eventually I will be able to help others, too. > > I would say from your symptoms temps and BP falling you need more HC. > MOst of us that have similar symptoms mnee d25-35mg daily.
