Re: Sleep problems with HC and T4

[Guest guest]

Check your temps. If your temp is too high it could indicate too much

thyroid still. Can you post some pre-HC saliva labs? Possibly I could

help you further if yu would give me some details.

Hi ,

The saliva labs I listed were taken before I started the HC.

My temperatures are still a little higher (36.5) than my normal levels

(36.3). It may take a little longer to use up all the T4.

August 2007 (no medication)

Free T3 is 5.4 (range is 4.0-6.8)

Free T4 is 13.3 (range is 9.0-19.1)

TSH is 7.04 (range is 0.4-4.0)

WIth these labs you proabbly one needed T3 btu the adrenal labs, you need ALOT

mor cortisol than what you are taking, And that may be why your labs (Frees)

loook so high and TSH is stikl too high. The body is screaming for thyroid and

ther eis plenty in the blood but not getting to the cells. I woudl STOP ALL

thyroid for now and work on getting you HC dosing right. You need ot graph

temps and do BP chekcs both sitting and then standing to find out when oyu get

to a high enough dose of HC which I susopect will be over 30MG.

Hi ,

Thanks for your input. I will certainly monitor more closely my temps

& BP.

The thing is I feel fine now - lots of energy, no fatigue - it is just

the fitful sleep that is annoying me.

I am meeting my GP next month so will see what he has to say. I am

always weary about changing things too quickly.

thanks again,

Well aside fron the TSH being so high your thyroid labs do no tlook that

bad at all so I am not surporised you feel pretty good as the thyroid is

beginning to get to the cells. But as it gets to the cells, it will drop

in the blood and n0ow on HC it may look quite differnt once it is able

to go to the cells unimpeded.

My last TSH reading was low at 0.35 (range 0.4 - 4). Before going on

T4 it was alot higher (around 7).
