Testing on t3/t4

[Lilacsocks]

Hello!

I have finally started my t3/t4 treatment and I am due to test, can anyone remind me of the testing protocol when you are taking T3?

I take 100mg levo and 5mg lio at 7am

and 5 mg at 3pm

Do I need to delay the second dose to take a morning test?

Thanks in advance.

Day before test take last 5mcg dose T3 approx 8-12 hours before test

You could even cut 5mcg into 2 tiny 2.5mcg doses, taking 2.5mcg at 3pm and 2.5mcg at 9pm

Last dose levothyroxine 24 hours before test

Stop taking any supplements that contain biotin a week before blood test
