Guest guest Posted May 2, 2010 Report Share Posted May 2, 2010 > >Thanks for all the information, I will talk to my Doc about straight T3, but am not hopeful. I was not on anything else before SRt3, had very low ferritin (22) due to another illness, but have managed to get that up. If I have to remain on SRt3 how often do you think it is safe to increase and by how much each time, should I try 20mcg every 8 hours for my next increase? That seems a reasonable increase going over to 8 hour intervals. You need to be more cautious about SR than you do normal as an overdose stays with you longer so you can't dose to " a bit too much and then back off a notch " . Assuming the 20 of SR is similar to 12.5 or 15 of normal you can add extra doses 1 at a time for increases. If you go over to 3 times a day and then start adding an extra to one of those doses at a time so you go from 20, 20 to 20, 20, 20 and then 40, 20, 20 40 40 20 40, 40, 40 60, 40 40 and increase like that at something like weekly intervals bearing in mind temperature, pulse etc as per the web site 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...
