I have my 6 monthly blood test coming up. I have had thyroidectomy for cancer ten years ago and will have my thyroglobulin checked, and complete thyroid profile. I take:-

10 mcg T3 at 5.30 a.m.

20 mcg T3 at 11.30 a.m.

20 mcg T3 at 15.30 p.m.

When would be my last dose before an 8 a.m. blood test please in your opinion?

Shaws, in your opinion what is the value of 50 mcgs of T3 in Levothyroxine terms?
