Guest guest Posted March 20, 2008 Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 >>I did saliva testing in January and T4 was 3.2 (range 0.7-2.5) My T3 was 4.3 (range 2.5-6.5) My TSH was 1.0. << With low T3 adn over range T4 I would suspect oyu have high RT3. It will block the action of T3 and leave you hypo wiht plenty of thyroid in your blood but not able to use it. -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ http://www.seewell4less.com/Valspage.htm Medical Alert Bracelets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 20, 2008 Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 Do I need a reverse T3 test, or can I just assume I am reverse T3? Also how do you switch over from taking 6 grains thyroid S to just T3 and for how long? Thanks, Judi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 20, 2008 Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 I oewuld want to know for certain, but it is not imperative to do the RT3 testing. I switche dover by changing out one graoin a week for 25mcg T3, then after the Armoru was all gone I adjusted the T3 UP by temps & symptoms. -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/RT3_T3/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
