Need help with RT3/ Adrenals

[Guest guest]

My wife has a good naturopathic doctor that is treating her fibromyalgia. He has

done a saliva test and has her on Seriphos (Serine & Phosphorus) to lower her

high cortisol levels since May 20. She has been on low dose Naturethroid since

June but symptoms seemed to worsen. A new blood test revealed that since

starting Naturethroid, the FT3/ RT3 ratio worsened:

• FT3= 3.5 (range 2.0-4.8 pg/mL)

• RT3= 37 (range 11-32 ng/dL)

Her doctor just started her on T3 only but doesn't want to increase dosage as

frequently as thyroid-rt3.com suggests. On the 4th day of being on T3 (6.25mcg

two times/day), she had severe migraine with nausea. Was this an indication of

needing more T3?

Another concern is temperature (Dr. Rind) which varies up to .6 deg. from one

day to the next. Does she need adrenal support? If so, suggestions?

Thanks,

Rick

Hi ,

The saliva test was done by Diagnos-Techs. Here are the results:

Free Cortisol Rhythem

6-8am= 33 (Range 13-24nM)

11am-noon= 16 (Range 5-10nM)

4-5pm= 9 (Range 3-8nM)

10pm-12am= 4 (Range 1-4nM)

Cortisol Load= 62 (Range 23-42)

DHEA= 1 (Range 3-10ng/ml)

Insulin Fasting= <3 (Range 3-12 ulU/mL)

Insulin Non-Fasting= <3 (Range 5-20 ulU/mL)

Total Salivary SIgA= <5 (Range 25-60 mg/dl)

We appreciate all you do for everyone.

Thanks,

Rick
