Re: Val or Nick---my Brother's labs

[Guest guest]

TSH 1.67 (.450-4.5)

Total T3 98 (76-181)

Total T4 12.6 (4.5-12.5)

Oh yeah, these labs SCREAM RT3. T4 shoudl NEVER be over mid-range, and wiht his

T3 near the bottom of range wiht T4 that high he is certainly not converting to

T3 properly.

Thank you , thank you...That's sort of what I thought.

Now if he gets his ferritin tested and by chance it is normal, would getting the Vit D up help correct things or is this something that only T3 will help? I will relay your comments and try to get him and try to get him on the right path.

It is hard to say if the problem started with just too high levels of T4

maybe and that is one BIG maybe, he can just reduce T4, but I htink at

the very least he needs ot add t3 to his treatment.

I have a similar problem with T4 above the lab level and lower T3, but I'm on a beta blocker. I believe it was you Val who told me that the beta blocker will prevent the T4 from converting properly. I'm waiting to see a new doctor who will understand this process. Question- could taking a beta blocker possibly have made me hypo in the first place?Thanks,Liz R Re: Val or Nick---my Brother's labsTo: RT3_T3 > It is hard to say if the problem started with just too high > levels of T4 > maybe and that is one BIG maybe, he can just reduce T4, but I > htink at > the very least he needs ot add t3 to his treatment.> > -- > > > http://nthadrenalsweb.org/> > http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ http://faqhelp.webs.com/> > http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/RT3_T3/> http://www.thyroid-rt3.com/> > http://groups.yahoo.com/group/HypoPets/> http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/> >

It would not cause low T4 but it could cause hypo through too much RT3

and lowering T3.

Val, I'm not aware of him taking beta blockers. He did tell me he is taking Crestor. Would this cause any problems???

Seems that it could. If he gets his THYROID right he won't need that

nasty drug! Krill oil is also good for lowering bad cholesterole and

building the good and losering triglycerides as well.
