Guest guest Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 Thanks! Now one more question Or maybe 2? I just found some labs from July. Should these be higher? Are they off enough to give me the symptoms below? FT3- 1.19 FT4 2.7 TSH in Dec 1.02 I have some symptoms of low thyroid and low adrenal according to some sites. I know I have given a bit of my history before but since I found these labs, I thought I would start over. Low body temp Internal shaking No appetite Low cold/heat tolerance Sleep not very good Headaches Depression Anxiety Brain fog Jittery Dizzy Lightheaded when standing No constipation (I know constipation can be thyroid) I had a complete hyst 6 years ago due to endometrial cancer and for the last year have been on higher doses of Estrogen and Progesterone which has helped some of these symptoms. But I can't seem to get stabilized. I can't remember the last time I had a " normal " day. Elisabeth V. _____ From: gnattygrl@...

If you take your BP laying down it will be even lower. Nat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 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. > Thanks! > > Now one more question Or maybe 2? > > I just found some labs from July.
