Guest guest Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 I am just seeing this post. Here are my labs Iron Binding Capacity 205 Low ( 250-450) > UIBC 126 Low (150-375) > Iron, serum 79 (35 _155) > Iron Saturation 39 (15-55) > > Ferritan 271 Sodium, serum 142 (135-145) Potassium, serum 4.2 (3.5-5.2 Chloride, serum 102 ( 97-108) Carbon Dioxide, Total 30 (20-32) I am still having a lot of leg pain. the doctor does not know why. But my muscles are cramping and spasming terrible. Sometimes I can hardly use them. I just don't understand this. I am not sleeping and I am taking the T3 and cortef at night. I have never felt this kind of pain in my legs and inablity to use them. I work out and my muscles are so constricted that I can hardly work out either.

I have never felt this kind of pain in my legs and inablity to use them. I work out and my muscles are so constricted that I can hardly work out either. I used to wake up and hobble across the room in the morning before I started on thyroid, it was a hypo symptom for me and cleared with Armour. At the time I just put it down to getting older and had no idea it was thyroid related.. what are your temperatures and pulse doing???

Guest guest Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 97.8, 98.0,98.0, 97.9, 97.9, 97.8,97.8, 97.7, 97.9 pulse 88, 88, 84, 100, 7.9, 84,76 I don;t think I can continue to raise the T3. I am wasting away to nothing. How do I add armour to the already 12.5, 12.5, 12.5, 12.5 and 6.5 cortef. I had to lower the cortef because the symtoms were so bad. Blowing up like a ballon. 7 1/2, 5, 5, 2 1/2 2 1/2 The pain in my hips seems to go away when I add the T4 and get extreme when I go to high on T3 I really need help with this whole picure.
