Help with new labs - I, anyone

[Guest guest]

I just had more blood work done yesterday. Here is the latest:

8-28-03

FT3 - 3.84 (range 1.7 - 3.7)

FT4 - 1.0 (range .7 - 1.9)

TSH - 0.01 (range .3 - 5.0)

8-12-03

FT3 - 4.25

FT4 - 1.5

TSH - 0.01

7-22-03

FT3 - 5.18

FT4 - 1.9

TSH - 0.01

6-26-03

FT4 - 3.1

TSH - .01

I feel like I am " in range " now. I do think the FT4 is going a

little low and that a reduction is probably warranted. I am still on

300 mgs. PTU/day. How much should I cut down. I take 100 mgs. every

8 hours. Is cutting down to 50 mgs. every 8 hours too drastic.

Should I cut pills? My docs are now " very happy " about my numbers,

but I am starting to feel a little " slow " . Any help anyone can give

on how to start reducing will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Lori
