Farie, Split the T3 into 2 doses. Take the first dose with T4 and take the 2nd dose 8-12 hours later.

Farie, you can cut the 65mg tablet in half. Try it for a couple of days and see whether it helps. If not, you can take T3 and T4 together in one dose.

Can I be clear?

Do you mean you are taking 65 milligrams of "whole thyroid" (a compounded desiccated thyroid) and 100 micrograms of levothyroxine?

That would end up around 9 micrograms of T3 - that is, well under 10% of your intake being T3.

They are both milligrams

No, they won't be. Levo will definitely be mcg.

I think Rod was asking if you take natural dessicated thyroid - and you do. :) That's not T3 - it'll be a mixture of T4 and T3.
