Hi All! Advice wanted please. Brief recap on this last year; was doing really well on naturethroid, all symptoms alleviated (on 4 grains). Beginning of 2018 symptoms began returning and by July my FT3 had dropped down to 3.54 (3.1-6.8), despite increasing my dose to 4.5 grains so I switched to Thai Thiroyd (4.5 grains) in July.
In October my FT3 had increased to 4.1 (3.1-6.8), just had my thyroid review at the doctors and my results are: FT3 4.8 (3.5-6.5).
I am feeling quite tired on and off again recently. Really suffering with a shoulder injury that just won't improve (maybe not improving due to low T3 levels?) and don't know whether to stay on my current dose or whether to go up to 5 grains...that seems a lot! It had taken around 6 months for my levels to drop so I knew it would take a while for them to get back up again and I don't want to increase my dose too much and overshoot. Any other advice welcome too!!
