Dose timing

I know the 24hr and 12 hr timing before blood draw .

Never really worked it out though.

I have a blood draw Tuesday coming at 8.30am.

I take my Levo and T3 together between 1 and 2 am . When I get up for bathroom.

Do I leave my normal dose till later or fit in an earlier dose ?

Sorry to be dumb

Delay Monday's Levo until 8.30am, take half your T3 dose with your Levo. Take your other half of T3 dose between 8.30pm and bedtime. Blood draw 8.30am Tuesday, take Tuesdays's Levo and T3 after the blood draw.
