When did you take your last dose of T3? It's way over range.

It looks like you could be over medicated. I assume you are on T3 only.

hi i took my last dose this morning. the thing is my dr put me on anti depressants a couple of months ago and i have stopped them now as they didnt agree with me. so i have been off them 2 weeks and feeling a lot better with out them. so i am not sure what to do? could it have been the anti depressants that took my result too high? as it they were fine before that.

I meant when was your last dose of T3 before the blood draw for that test. It's normal to leave 12 hours between last dose and blood draw. If you took your T3 before your test then that would give a high FT3. If you left 12 hours or more then you are very overmedicated.

yes i did take my t3 in the morning before my test. should i leave it for a while and re test in a couple of months?

[SeasideSusie Remembering in reply to t3tracy]

Well, in that case your FT3 result is not a true reflection. How long before blood draw did you take your T3 and what time was your test done?

I think you may be overmedicated but you could repeat the test and leave 12 hours between your last dose and blood draw. No need to leave 2 months unless you have changed your dose.
