Guest guest Posted August 18, 2010 Report Share Posted August 18, 2010 I would give it some time and also check her poulse. The pulse is another good indicator of T3 levels, 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/ valerie...my daughter has raised her T3 meds by 6.25 in the morning and 6.25 in the nighttime dose...so she is now on 1 grain NT (divided) 18.5, 12.25, 12.25, 18.5 of T3 meds she takes melatonin and bedtime....her basal temps are still low (seems they have not gone back up since she quit taking the zinc so i am wondering if these lower basals are the true numbers and before they were elevated due to cortisol?? is that possible??) anyway her basal is running 97.3 does she just continue to raise meds till that basal comes back up?? or do we sit here and see if the zinc effect wears off...cause her basal temps were higher before she took that zinc for 3 days at bedtime....

Guest guest Posted August 18, 2010 Report Share Posted August 18, 2010 her pulse just now was 78 and her temp at 11:30 was 98.4.....is that a good pulse??it seems like her basal temps were higher when she was on a lower dose of T3 meds and more NT but i guess that was because she still had enough T4 that might have converted to FT3??? just wondering?? valerie...my daughter has raised her T3 meds by 6.25 in the morning and 6.25 in the nighttime dose...so she is now on 1 grain NT (divided) 18.5, 12.25, 12.25, 18.5 of T3 meds she takes melatonin and bedtime....her basal temps are still low (seems they have not gone back up since she quit taking the zinc so i am wondering if these lower basals are the true numbers and before they were elevated due to cortisol?? is that possible??) anyway her basal is running 97.3 does she just continue to raise meds till that basal comes back up?? or do we sit here and see if the zinc effect wears off...cause her basal temps were higher before she took that zinc for 3 days at bedtime....

Guest guest Posted August 18, 2010 Report Share Posted August 18, 2010 If she is in relatively good physical hape that is a bit high pulse for a young gal. I owuld not increase the T3 from there and just hold an dsee if the temps start to come up better in a week or so. 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/ her pulse just now was 78 and her temp at 11:30 was 98.4.....is that a good pulse?? it seems like her basal temps were higher when she was on a lower dose of T3 meds and more NT but i guess that was because she still had enough T4 that might have converted to FT3??? just wondering?? valerie...my daughter has raised her T3 meds by 6.25 in the morning and 6.25 in the nighttime dose...so she is now on 1 grain NT (divided) 18.5, 12.25, 12.25, 18.5 of T3 meds she takes melatonin and bedtime....her basal temps are still low (seems they have not gone back up since she quit taking the zinc so i am wondering if these lower basals are the true numbers and before they were elevated due to cortisol?? is that possible??) anyway her basal is running 97.3 does she just continue to raise meds till that basal comes back up?? or do we sit here and see if the zinc effect wears off...cause her basal temps were higher before she took that zinc for 3 days at bedtime....
