[Guest guest]

oh yea....her blood pressure a couple of days ago was 116/59....which i thought was weird due to the large difference between the systolic and diastolic numbers...does anyone know if val is available this week for a phone consult...?/Subject: could someone advise me pleaseTo: RT3_T3 Date: Tuesday, August 24, 2010, 8:27 PMi know val is gone but i could use some advise for my daughter who just left for college..she is currently on 1 grain NT in divided dose, plus 18.75,12.5, 12.5, 18.75 of T3she takes melatonin as advised by val at bedtime ...her basal temps POST ovulation are running about 97.3 at 7 a.m.today at 9:30 her temp was 98.3her pulse is about upper 80's...and she is a fit college girl...athlete so this semes highshe says she feels fine but today she is having some abdominal pain (about to start period maybe) knee pain....said her ears feel clogged like they need to keep popping....sort of feeling like maybe getting sick...do t hese sound like thyroid issues ??of course i am not there to help...we had just increased her T3 at the last dose by 6.25 about 1 week ago...and the week before that we had

increased the monring dose...however after those 2 increases her basal temp did not go up....and she did not feel any better or worse...i guess i am concerned taht she has some pooling going on or is maybe a bit hyper ..yet her basal temps are so low for taht to be the case....do you guys think that maybe she should lower one of her T3 doses?? how do i tell if she is getting sick or is hyper or hypo or cortisol issues?? any opinions?? thanks ..dawn
