Finally convinced my endo.specialist to prescribed Liothyronine sodium 5mcg around 6 months ago. My doctors are refusing to monitor T3 and increase the dose if needed. Pls. see my blood work results in the last 6 months. I learned a lot from this group. I feel I need to increase the dose to reach the maximum normal range. I still have some of the symptoms I was experiencing before but doing much, much better since starting this medication. I can get Liothyronine outside of my insurance and need your help to guide me on how I can increase the doses from 5mcg safely. Thanks
