Questions about upcoming labs to get and dosing T3

[Guest guest]

I started T3 only on May 18 after my FT3/RT3 ratio came back 6.9. So this coming week will be 12 weeks since I started. I'm up to 137.5mcg T3 and 40 mg HC. My temps have been somewhat erratic: basal from 97.2–98.1, but typically bwtn 97.5-97.7; daily averages usually 98.3–98.9, again not really stable. I'm due for my yearly physical in 4 weeks and want to know if I should get my usual thyroid labs (FT4, FT3, RT3 Thyroid Binding Globulin) or not? I did the salt test after experiencing pretty constant heart palps, and my pulse came down from 103 to 81. I will be testing my aldosterone, renin, sodium and potassium as I think I need Slow-K and Florinef; am off progesterone for 2 weeks. Although I supp with sea salt, labs are consistently low:

sodium 139 (135-145)

potassium 3.8 (3.5-5.2)

My weight is still stuck. Should I wait to increase anymore T3 till I go on Florinef & Slow-K? How will I know when the RT3 clears?

Thanks for all your help!!!!!
