Here is a blood test from yesterday. I've been from T4 only, for 25 years, to T3 only, for 3weeks, to, now, 50 mcg of T4 and 30 mcg of T3. I began having problems six months ago with Levo while I was removing all traces of processed sugar from my diet. I had been on .88 mcg of Levo for 25 years and have gone through more in the past six months than the first 25 years. So, if you look at my blood test you can see that I have low T4 and high T3, the opposite of what started me taking T3 only. Anyway, I think, since I am, apparently, converting the T4 to T3 I am under-medicated of T4 and should raise it, maybe to 75 mcg. I say this because my hemoglobin is good at 14.1 & my red blood cell count is 4.43, high enough for red blood cells, I think, to prove my hemoglobin & Ferriten Folate are good. My Vitamin B12 is good at 589. My Ferriten is somewhat low at 42 but my Folate is somewhat high at 20.2 so it should be good. And my Cortisol is good at 18.2 mcg/dl. Anyway, what else could it be? Anyone have a similar experience?
