Restarting T3
Hi, I’m restarting
T3
tomorrow after I do a finger prick
test
tomorrow to see what my thyroid levels are like after being off T3 since the end of January. I’m starting on a quarter tablet. How often should I raise the amount? And after how long should I get my levels tested? Thanks

T3 blood test - 4 hrs after taking?
Today, endo has sent me for 2nd blood
test
as he says
T3
needs to be tested 4 hrs after taking (and not 12 hrs as I had done) in order to see its peak level. I’m doing this now, just wondered what people here thought?

I appear to have upset someone...
It drives me mad that they go on about how taking
T3
is dangerous, but will not
test
it!

Hello again, I have just had a full blood

Testing RT3 while on T3 only
I just had lab work done and wanted to add in the reverse
T3
serum
test
, because I've found
T3
only to work well for my hypothyroidism. The
test
result was "below low normal".

Change in thyroid tests as I taper Prednisone
134 (76 to 181) No CRP
test
11/2023 TSH .1 FT4 1.5 No FT3 or
T3
test
No CRP test The March TSH was the lowest I have ever been, generally running between 1.6 and 2.0. once I was stabilized.

Useless Endocrinology appointment
Anyway, I will retest my thyroid levels because I didn't follow the proper protocol for the
test
(hadn't taken my full dose of
t3
22 hours before the
test
). Thanks everyone ☺

FREE T3
I went over an old
test
back in 2015 a FREE
T3
only done privately. Never diagnosed with thyroid issues NHS keep saying all is normal. What can FREE T3 be with? Is this auto immune or just T3 hormone issues?

Recent constipation need advice.
I can’t work out whether I need to up the
T3
or reduce it..I’ve ordered a
test
asap. Can your body get used to the
T3
as it does the T4 so you need more? Any advice much appreciated!

Testing protocol
Hi, I'm about to
test
my
T3
and T4, 6 weeks after starting lio. I know that I need to leave 24 hours between my last levo dose and the 9am test (taking my levo straight afterwards). But what about the lio timings? I currently take 10mcg in one dose upon waking.

Obtaining T3 in the UK
It appears I am a poor converter of T4 to T3 and would benefit from taking
T3
. I am aware the doctors won’t even
test
for
T3
levels, let alone prescribe it. Can anyone recommend a reliable company that sells T3 or even a way to get prescribed in the UK.

Oh well!
So next time I feel the need for a blood test, I can just book it and hand over the bag as it says to
test
T3
. Bonus!

Thyroid test denied
For the first time in fifteen years, I had a GP asking all sorts of irrelevant questions when I asked my thyroid to be tested and the Free
T3
included. In the end, according to them, the lab didn't
test
the FRee
T3
. Obviously, this is due to the GP's input.

T3 battles
She has reluctantly agreed to up my dosage of
T3
to 40mcg and booking me in for a cortisol
test
. She also said it’s highly unlikely that I will lose the 2 stone I put on whilst taking levothyroxine even though I eat healthily and exercise every day now

T3 blood test result
Hello, like a lot of people with hypo and Hashimotos I’m still struggling to get to bottom of why I have so many symptoms but ‘normal’ results. I take 75mg a day of levo as was looking to increased by a small amount but not looking likely. . Doesn’t sound like they can test t4. I’ve finally got myT3

Update on Endo and WLAMS
Re the Endo who was determined to take away my
T3
whilst all I wanted was a blood
test
to include
T3
. After an exchange of letters, he phoned this morning. He had back pedalled so far he was out of site.
