Re: Val: opinion pls on newest labs

[Guest guest]

I would try to hold where you are, if BP starts to run high lower HC,

not T3. How long have you been on T3 only? You SHOULD be holding iron

better than you are.

not T3. How long have you been on T3 only? You SHOULD be holding iron

better than you are, Unless it was falsely elevated due to inflammation

which is now cleared. I woudl say an ir9on panel would be good to get

rather than just Ferritin.

OK, will do. Just took BP & it was 133/78 & pulse was 99!! Ugh.

I haven't taken my 2nd dose of T3 yet bc I am concerned re: pulse.

My MCV was elevated & my MCHC was below normal both of which mean iron

deficiency as best as I can tell from my research. I started taking Floradix

today for my iron on recommendation of my naturopath.

Do you think I should take next dose of T3 or should I wait? Also do you think I

should try 5 x a day dosing of 15 mcg each of T3 or stick w the 4 x a day

dosing?

I had gone down to 22.5 mg of HC but was feeling very tired & drained so I

raised it bk up to the 25 mg. I have been on HC for 1 yr now.

I just want to be able to stay on the T3. I have been on it for 5 months now. I

have lost total of 15 lbs to date. Have quite a bit to go & don't want to go bk

on the weight gaining wagon!

Thnx Val. Looking forward to your reply.

I had gotten a full iron panel bk in April when Ferritin was at 89 which showed

everything to be great, so it was not falsely elevated.The results were as

follows:

Ferritin 89

Iron Binding Capacity 330 range of 250-450

UIBC 191 range of 150-375

Iron, Serum 139 range of 35-155

Iron Saturation 42 range of 15-55

I haven't been supplementing too much since then w iron on my own bc most iron

pills make me nauseaous & tear thru my stomach. I prolly should have been tho in

light of my Ferritin dropping. Rats!

I wonder why I am not holding on to the iron?? I stopped eating red meat. Could

that have something to do w it? My periods have been heavy but not as much as

before.

Nothing else on my current labs is flagged.

Any thoughts? Thnx Val.

OK, thnx. Guess I will stick w/ the 4 x a day dosing.

Do you think I should take any more T3 today w my pulse being 99 or should I

just let it calm down rest of day & start again tomorrow?

Do you think I should scale bk down to the 70 mcg? I was not having high pulse

on that.
