Guest guest Posted August 11, 2006 Report Share Posted August 11, 2006 My canary club results are here and wow are they different from the blood work. ANy input would be appreciated. When I did the tests, I had been on 1 gr of Armour for 3 1/2 weeks and prior to that, 100 mcg of synthroid for 1 month. fTSH >600 (20-120 nIU/ml) fT4 0.19 (0.17-0.42 ng/dl) fT3 0.39 (0.21-1.10 pg/ml) TPO positive (neg) Interesting to note that my bloodwork was negative for TPO! And in no way reflects the extent of my hypothyroidism like the saliva does. I feel RELIEVED!!! I was doubting myself always trying to suck it up like all these symptoms could have been in my head. Basically denying what my body has been screaming to tell me for the last few years. Cortisol testing Am 13 normal (13-24) Noon 2 depressed (5-10) Afternoon <1 depressed (3-8) Midnight <1 depressed (1-4) cortisol burden 17 (23-42) DHEA 3 (3-10) Cortisol-DHEA correlation says that I am between " Non-adapted, Low reserves " and " Adrenal Fatigue " Dam*. I knew I was tired but wow I really thought my adrenals were ok. No wonder I had been collapsing in a heap about 1:30 everyday!! Where can I get something today? Do they have anything at the health food stores? I feel like I'm an emergency! Estradiol 15 (7-20 luteal phase) Progesterone 428 (65-500 luteal phase) Free Testosterone 22 (8-20) Ok. Where is my sex drive then?!! Maybe my adrenals said " no, we are waaay too tired to do that! " At least my ovaries still work! Thank you thank you to Janie! If I had not found your website- STTM- I would be trying to plug along at one-half of myself. H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
