Low Ferritin, Hold off on Armour Increase?

[Guest guest]

I have Hashi's and AF. Take 2 grains of Armour first thing in the am since

October.

Started HC in December and up to 30 mg. Temps have finally stabilized in the

last week 97.6-97.8. My main reason for doing the HC was to take more Armour to

get the TSH down for the Hashis and secondarily for adrenal rehab. I understand

these two go hand-in-hand.

Just took a Ferritin test and my level is 9 !!! Should I hold off on adding any

Armour until the ferritin is up or can I add 15mg/day? I have felt more

fatigued this last week and back to wanting an afternoon nap.

My TSH 3 weeks ago was 1.47 up from .57 six months ago. It is my understanding

that getting the TSH way down is crucial for controlling the antibody attacks,

right?

My most recent T4/T3 labs are from November when

FT4 was 1.36 (.8-1.8)

FT3 was 490 (230-420).

Thanks!

Janet
