Guest guest Posted March 8, 2005 Report Share Posted March 8, 2005 Hi Jeanne. Were you using a mercury thermometer, because that is REALLY low for the afternoon and for someone on 3 1/2 grains. If not, take your temp with the mercury thermometer and see what it gives you. If it was, it sounds like you might be one of those folks who would do fine raising again this soon. Remember that it takes about 4-5 weeks for the conversion of T4 to T3 to show. But with your extreme coldness, doesn't sound like you are anywhere near your optimal dose. If it was me, I'd go to 4 grains....and see. You do what seems right for you!!
