Guest guest Posted August 22, 2010 Report Share Posted August 22, 2010 In spite of my FT3 and FT4 looking good, I was still feeling hypo, so my doc added in an RT3 test. I didn't have my follow-up with him yet, but was interested what the labs may mean as the RT3 seems too high. I'm currently on 45 mg porcine from compounding pharmacy and 25 synthyroid (I know this isn't much of either, but after removing gluten from my diet, I didn't need as much thyroid meds). I'm also taking 45 mg of iron. I've also included my iron and ferritin labs. Thanks!! Iron - Total Iron Bind Capacity: Iron 43 (40-175 ug/dl) TIBC 385 (250-450 ug/dl) % Saturation 11 (15-15%) UIBC 342 (110-370 ug/dl) Ferritin 26 (10 - 232 ng/ml) TSH <0.01 (0.40 - 4.50 miu/l) FT3 335 (230-420 pg/dl) FT4 1.0 (0.8 - 1.8 ng/dl) RT3 30 (11-32 ng/dl) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
