Lab results

[Guest guest]

I just found a more recent lab done in Sept.I don't see a FT4.

FT3 -2.5 (2.3-4.2)

DHEA 91.0 (32-240)

My July labs were-

FT3- 2.7 (2.3-4.2)

FT4- 1.19 (.61-1.76)

I also want to add ringing ears and gallbladder problems to my list. I'm

sure there are more but I've been living so long feeling so crappy that I

think I just have gotten used to most of them.

I am on bio-identical hormones. I have never used Premarin or Prem-pro ( I

like horses to much )

Thanks so much for any input.

Elisabeth, do you have the ranges for your FTs? It's not just that

they be w/in the range but where they fall in that range that

matters.

With respect to your estrogen and progesterone, are you on bio-

identical hormones? Or are you using synthetics, like provera ?

Some of the problems might be related to the female hormones, I

suggest you get a copy of " what your doctor may not tell you about

menopause " by Dr. Lee - it's not just for menopausal women.
