I am on NDT 60mg taking it divided 2 x per day, and overall I am feeling pretty good as it pertains to my hypothyroidism though there may be some times later in the evening I may feel the T3 wearing off. Here are my most recent labs:
TSH 1.31 0.40--4.50
FREE T4 1.0 0.80-1.8
FREE T3 4.0 2.3-4.2
Vit D 60 Optimal >30
B12 1086 (no ref range)
Folate 17.2 >5.4
No Iron taken! I can't seem to get the docs to do Iron on my lab for some reason.
It's important to note that the lab draw was done 2 hours after my AM dose of 30mg of Armour as the endo insists on doing it this way even though we all know T3 will be much higher in this time frame then it would he hours later.
These values are fairly identical to ones I did 4 weeks earlier when I was on 45 mg of Armour, so the 15mg bump didn't really do anything lab wise or clinically.
My question is since the T4 is on the lower side of opitmal, TSH is ok but could be even lower still, and the T3 value is transiently higher due to the 2 hour post med lab draw, should I either suggest yet another 15 mg Armour increase, or suggest supplement with a small dose of Levo (boosting T4 mostly) or just leave it all alone since I feel okay for the most part?
Appreciate your thoughts!
