Guest guest Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 I do nto think ANYONE needs ot go over 75-80mcg T3 by the 6-7 week point. Gpoing way too high will only cuse adrenal stress as it wil lpool whne you have high RT3 still. You cannot push more T3 into the cells until the Rt3 reduces so the first 4-6 weeks all you are tryingto do is supress T4 and thus RT3 production., You are not ABLE to getunhypo at that poitn so more T3 is NOT a good thing to do then. The 6.25mcg raises are fine until you get to a 75-100mcg dose then oyu really need to be judiciouos in raising it as it wil be pooling and htus building WAY high inthe blood. This accomplished nothing and will not get rid of RT3 faster. It can also cause adrenla stress which we certianly do nto need more of. 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/ Here is the next spread sheet. The calculation is for increasing by 6.25 every 3 days. I am assuming I will not need to go this high before clearing and then will have to drop back and decrease. But I am at 131.25 at the 7th week and still low temps (but steady) and pulse. For me it makes sense to have the 30 days prescription have more pills than i need since I pay a co-pay each time. so I pay the same no matter how many pills I get. I am still getting the 25 mcg pills since they are easier to cut into 6.25 quarters for the slow increases. I tried going 4 days at 125 mcg (I am doing 5 doses per day) and by the 3rd day temps dip a little.  It looks like I will reach the end of the 12th week around Oct. 7th.  I hope that these spread sheets are helpful. If you download the attachment and open it in microsoft excell you should be able to change the amounts to suit your needs. Sharon Remember! Dolls are people, too....have you hugged your dolls today?

No more spraining my brain trying to calculate how many pills to order! > > > > Subject: A dosing calculation spread sheet > To: RT3_T3 > Date: Monday, August 30, 2010, 10:26 PM > > > Â > > > > Hi everyone. > > If anyone else has had trouble with figuring out how many pills you need in a given month or to help your doc know how to write your prescription when you are upping your T3 dose by 6.25 or 12.5 every 3 to 7 days I have a spread sheet you can use that my husband has created for me. He works for a pharmasudical firm in the accounting dept. his job has him having to make spread sheets to calculate how many doses of a medicine will be made from a given batch. he used this knowledge to make me a spread sheet which i passed on to my doc so he would know how many pills to write the script for. you can use this as a model to calculate your amounts. > > The spread sheet figures out the max amount based on increasing every 3 days. then it adds up the total number of pills per month. The doc then divides that into equal amounts to write the prescription. For example: I was taking 5 doses each day but not every dose was the same amount. But for the script he wrote 4 times a day so that the number of pills would be able to be divided evenly. This post from the group will not allow me to make an attachment so i will attach the file in a reply to my own post. > > You can adapt the calculation based on this model to suit your individual amounts/dosage. My husband is about to make me a 2nd calculation starting at 125mcg. > Sharon > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
