My FT3 is 5.6 (3.5-6.50) on 31.25mcg every morning.
For my blood test I took my T3 at 8am Monday 18.75mcg and 9pm 12.5mcg.
Had my bloods done at 9am Tuesday. Can I increase my T3 to 1 1/2 pills 37.5mcg or could it take me over range. I’m feeling tired so think it could help as I’m flagging n feeling tearful
I should think you could easily increase by 6.25 mcg.

I doubt it will take your FT3 over range. With similar results I increased my T3 and stayed within range.
What was your FT4 and how much Levo do you take?
I’m on T3 only so don’t worry too much with my TSH and FT4 but will get those next week when I see my GP and an update on my antibodies as they’ll take a week to come back.
I have to start taking some levo for my gp to monitor me as my Endo has discharged me for self medicating. Thought I could say I’m taking the lowest dose and not bother as it is of no benefit when I’ve taken it so gradually just came off if, and Endo agreed at the time a year ago.
My TSH is usually suppressed which my gp doesn’t understand bless him but I just want to be able to get my bloods done as and when to check my dose.

I thought you were on Levo as it says in your profile
"I'm on Levo but in Jan 17 I started to self medicate with T3 with the support of my Endo."
Is your GP going to support you self medicating with T3 only?
No that’s old I’ve just not updated it so will make sure I do.
My CCG says my gp should monitor me if I’m on levothyroxine so I’m going to get the lowest dose on prescription when I see him next week but continue on T3. I can’t afford to buy the UK licensed T3 so my Endo can look after me. So only way I can find around this dilemma.
I always get my TSH FT3 and FT4 done at gp’s. He obviously can’t monitor my T3 but as long as I can get my FT3 done I can do that myself which is all I need now.
Dose increase or not …??
Can I increase T3?
T3 dose increase?
