Guest guest Posted July 5, 2010 Report Share Posted July 5, 2010 It is best to just give us 3-5 days averages btu those MUST be consistent to be meaningful. 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/ > Hello Nick and : > > Thank you for being here.

Guest guest Posted July 5, 2010 Report Share Posted July 5, 2010 Thank you for your reply. I will work on a better system to get the temps taken and recorded consistently. Have most of you devised a system that works for you? I would love to hear what works for others. I have a small child that along with my erratic adrenaline waking symptoms causes a very sporadic schedule. Terri > > Hello Nick and : > > > > Thank you for being here.

Guest guest Posted July 5, 2010 Report Share Posted July 5, 2010 I fome days oyu wake at 6am and some days 7am and some days 9am, USE that LATEST one to start your three hour temps. EVERY day. So you would take them Noon, 3pm and 6pm every day. If oyu ar3 always up by 8AM you can start them earlier at 11am, 2PM 5pm 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/ > > Thank you for your reply.

Guest guest Posted July 5, 2010 Report Share Posted July 5, 2010 : One more question, please: I wake up for the last time each morning at a variable time. Most days I am awake for good at 5am. Should I take the temps always 3 hours after being awake or always at 8, 11 and 2 if most days (but not all days) I get up at 5? Thanks again, Terri > > > Hello Nick and : > > > > > > Thank you for being here.

Guest guest Posted July 5, 2010 Report Share Posted July 5, 2010 I had never read this rule before. Everything I've ever seen including the STTM book & website has said 3 hours after waking and then every 3 hrs thereafter. I get up at variable times also due to problems sleeping and I try to get sleep where ever I can. I used to force myself to wake at the same time everyday for years but that didn't help me at all. So I figure getting any sleep that I can is more important than consistant waking times. So, what if the latest I wake is around noon or 1pm at times? Is taking temps at 3, 6 & 9 too late?? I guess generally I'm up between 11 & 12 noon. Sometimes earlier, sometimes later. Sam > > > > Hello Nick and : > > > > > > > > Thank you for being here.
