Guest guest Posted August 9, 2010 Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 Greetings! I have been on the Natural Thyroid Hormone group for several years, but have not been able to get labs done until this month. I was diagnosed with Hashi's in 1995 – been on synthetic since then and have NEVER felt right! I tried Natural (Thyroid-s) for awhile, but never felt any better on Natural. I did get the following labs done and gleened from the STTM site for the reccomended labs. My RT3 is elevated so this is why I joined your group! All my Doc did was lower my synthroid when she read my TSH. I was on 0.175 mcg & she lowered it to 0.150mcg. I have also been to Nick's sight which gave me some insight into Cytomel, but don't know if my RT3 is so out of whack that I will need to stop all T4 meds and go strickly onto T3??? Any lab help and guidance would be greatly appreciated since my doctor does not know how to interpret the labs. Blood work in Aug 2010 TSH: 0.02 (low?) T4: 10.3 Free T3: 3.25 Free T4: 10.3 Reverse T3: 422 (High?) Thyroid ABS Anti Thyroglobu <20.0 (normal range?) Anti-thyroid PE 25.0 (showing to be high ? at 793.0) Ferritin: 78.8 Folate: >20 (high) B12: 533 Vit D, 25-HY: 47.1 Cortisol Random (blood work in a.m.) 10.1 (I realize Saliva is better, but cannot afford right now) Iodine: (My Doc said my Iodine was high?) Protein bound: 5.2 ug/dl Total: 8.5 ug/dl Inorganic (ABN) 3.3 ug/dl Gracias! Terri Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
