Re: Labs I believe confirm an RT3 problem

>My adrenals are stable on 30 mg HC with temperatures between 98-98.2. So, if I

understand correctly, I need a course of T3 only starting at an amount

equivalent to my 4 grains of NTH or 37.5 mcg T3. Do I divide this in to equal

amounts and would I take that with my HC doses?

TSH <.006 (0.450-4.50)

FT4 1.44 (0.82-1.77)

These two labs draw red flags for me. I never liek to see TSH below .01 thatis a

sign of either hyper or intolerance to thyroid. Then every time I see FT3 over

1.4 wiht these labs ranges, RT3 is too high. It moight just be a nmatter of

lowering natura thyroi da bti to reduce that FT4 an addingin a bit of T3 to

bring that up to 4.4 -5.0

Thanks, Nick. I have that page book marked ;-) and it is really helpful!

My situation doesn't match any of the causes ... unless being 49 is considered

aging :-( The other possibility is that while I do not have diabetes, I may

have some insulin resistance ... could that contribute? Can low or messed up

sex hormones contribute to it? My free testosterone is virtually 0.

Can you confirm my calculation is correct and that I do have an RT3 problem? (I

just really don't trust myself when it comes to ratios).

Val,

How much T3 would you add? I am at 4 grains of NatureThroid right now (down

from 5 grains when these labs were taken).

Great! I've been taken the 4 grains 2 in the AM first thing and 2 around 1:00

PM - how should I add in the T3?
