Thyroxine 24h urine collection

[Balou23]

Hi,

I got some results back of a 24h urine collection done in October.

Result of T3 is within range, but thyroxine is low in range.

Any idea what it means? Should I increase levo? TSH is around 3 mU/L

Looking at previous post

How much levothyroxine are you currently taking

Are you still only on 50mcg and 37.5mcg alternate days

Increase Levo by 25mcg per day

Retest in 6-8 weeks

Assume you are now taking EXACTLY same dose T3 every day

previous vitamin results

I now take 10 mcg T3 /day but maybe it is to much? Better take 5 mcg/day?

I took 75 mcg levo this morning instead of 50 mcg and might be increasing 37.5 mcg to 50 mcg again.

Yesterday I had a chalazion on my right eye and today it feels like I have a grain of sand in my left eye.

My eyebrows are balding 😢

I am very sleepy too.

I noticed my aldosteron was low. Didn’t know what it meant.

It can be due to malfunction of the adrenal cortex. I found more about this in an article in Flemish. It says you should take corticosteroids to restore the cortex before taking liothyronin.
