Guest guest Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 I'm really a pest here, but now i'm reading all these thyroid books that say one should have a really high FT3 after T3 treatment. My FT3 was very high at 4.5 (range 2.3--4.2) although my ratio was low at 11.......but doesn't it mean that I am getting T3 into my system? This is where I am confused......

This is where I am confused...... an FT3 at or just over top of range is good, it doesn't necessarily mean that it's getting into the cells though. Cortisol and Iron (or lack of) can prevent this happening and the nice looking lab still result in you feeling hypo.
