Guest guest Posted April 29, 2011 Report Share Posted April 29, 2011 With your Free T4 below the bottom of its range and your Free T3 quite low in its range, you may need an increase in your thyroid meds. While the saliva tests are quite good for cortisol, for thyroid, I would also like to see blood tests. How are you feeling? What reason did your pharmacy give for not making your meds and hormones? Are they no longer compounding? >> Hi, well i got my thyroid blood work in today and Monday i got my saliva test in.> > Thyroid levela are> > testosterone,serum 35 ( 8-48)> > Tsh 0.642 (0.450-4.500)> > progesterone 6.9 (postmeno 0.1-0.8)> > ESTRADIOL 25.7 (postmeno 6.0-54.7)> > dhea-sulfate 254.2 (60.9-337.0) > > triiodothyronine,free,serum 2.8 (2.0-4.4)> > t4,free( Direct) 0.77 red flag (0.82- 1.77 )> > % Free testosterone 2.99 red flag (0.50-2.80 ) %> > testosterone,free red flag 1.05 (0.10-0.85> > now what does this mean for my thyroid?> > I will now post my adrenal cortisol saliva test that come back.> > all levels are all normal range> > dhea(saliva) 5.8 ok (2-23)> > cortisol morning saliva 7.2 ok (3.7-9.5)> > cortisol noon 2.5 ok ( 1.2-3.0 )> > CORTISOL EVENING 1.0 ok (0.6-1.9)> > cortisol night 0.4 ok (0.4-1.0)> > that is it for the labs i got my iron test and ferritin back but posted that a while back and i think all is good for them.> > i had receved in the mail the other day a letter from my Pharmacy and i called them yesterday to see if this means me and my med, well, the compounded pharmacy will not make my thyroid med or my bi/est or progesterone any more i was so mad . but did say i can go to this other place down the road i said no i can't go back to the place that i use to go to becouse they started to give me the other kind of thyroid med with out asking me if it was ok. but i knew that it was the wrong stuff and the Dr confermied it was not the real thing so . i guess i have to get my throid med and bi/est and progesterone at a place in tomball or magnolia. any way that will be in june but for now i still have 51 pills left.> > i would like input of my thyroid labs Thanks have a good day or night everyone.> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 29, 2011 Report Share Posted April 29, 2011 Sorry, I misread. You do need an increase in your thyroid med. I would add that some folks do not do well on timed release meds. > >> > Hi, well i got my thyroid blood work in today and Monday i got my saliva test > >in.> > > > Thyroid levela are> > > > testosterone,serum 35 ( 8-48)> > > > Tsh 0.642 (0.450-4.500)> > > > progesterone 6.9 (postmeno 0.1-0.8)> > > > ESTRADIOL 25.7 (postmeno 6.0-54.7)> > > > dhea-sulfate 254.2 (60.9-337.0) > > > > triiodothyronine,free,serum 2.8 (2.0-4.4)> > > > t4,free( Direct) 0.77 red flag (0.82- 1.77 )> > > > % Free testosterone 2.99 red flag (0.50-2.80 ) %> > > > testosterone,free red flag 1.05 (0.10-0.85> > > > now what does this mean for my thyroid?> > > > I will now post my adrenal cortisol saliva test that come back.> > > > all levels are all normal range> > > > dhea(saliva) 5.8 ok (2-23)> > > > cortisol morning saliva 7.2 ok (3.7-9.5)> > > > cortisol noon 2.5 ok ( 1.2-3.0 )> > > > CORTISOL EVENING 1.0 ok (0.6-1.9)> > > > cortisol night 0.4 ok (0.4-1.0)> > > > that is it for the labs i got my iron test and ferritin back but posted that a > >while back and i think all is good for them.> > > > i had receved in the mail the other day a letter from my Pharmacy and i called > >them yesterday to see if this means me and my med, well, the compounded pharmacy > >will not make my thyroid med or my bi/est or progesterone any more i was so mad > >. but did say i can go to this other place down the road i said no i can't go > >back to the place that i use to go to becouse they started to give me the other > >kind of thyroid med with out asking me if it was ok. but i knew that it was the > >wrong stuff and the Dr confermied it was not the real thing so . i guess i have > >to get my throid med and bi/est and progesterone at a place in tomball or > >magnolia. any way that will be in june but fo! r now i still have 51 pills left.> > > > i would like input of my thyroid labs Thanks have a good day or night > everyone.> >> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
