Guest guest Posted July 25, 2010 Report Share Posted July 25, 2010 T4 should NEVER be top of the range asn that is creatign RT3. Usally anything over 1.4 on standard labs and oyu are making too much RT3. I would test RT3 to be certain but it sure sounds liek an RT3 problem Yes some folks convert just not enough. http://www.nthadrenalsweb.com 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://artisticgrooming.net/ > Hi, > Is is possible to have a problem with RT3 if you convert normally? > > I have tried all varieties of thyroid meds with varying success but am still fagitued and heavily spaced out (T4 makes that worse). > > I currently take T4 only and convert T4 to T3 normally according to blood tests and 100mcg gives me a supressed TSH and a T4 and T3 that are top of the range, so they look spot on in terms of results (any more than 100mcg makes me hyper and in fact I do feel slightly hyper at times on 100mcg). > > But I don't really feel a great deal better.
