What time of day was this test & when did you take last doses of Levo & T3 before?

How much Levo & T3 do you take?

How do you feel?

Are you supplementing vitamins, if so what?

So you took 25%T3 at 9pm and 2am? I think the 2am dose has scewed your test.

What time was the test?

Do you mean 2am or 2pm?

You may need to drop T3 by 5mcgs.

Thats correct timing then and I would suggest you might drop T3 by 5mcgs as FT3 is high.

You havent said how you feel.

Are you taking vit D3 too?
