Guest guest Posted October 13, 2004 Report Share Posted October 13, 2004 , great to hear that you are feeling good on the new dose.... I'm curious.. have you lost weight during the time that you were on the higher dose? Just wondering if weight loss may have reduced your need for hormone and that is why the new dose has made the difference for you...... The late night waking could be adrenal related... although it might just be that your body is readjusting? Do you keep regular sleeping hours to help your body get adjusted and develop a normal rhythm? Bottom line is that it's working for you and that you're working on fine tuning.... Love to hear that!!!

Anxiety has diminished and only thing that doesn't have me feeling back to normal (well, as normal as I can be) is my sleep pattern...I fall asleep fine but about 4-5 hours later, I'm wide awake. Hopefully this will get back to normal soon too - Doc wants a follow-up appt by end of November - probably because I haven't seen him face to face for a year and also I asked him for another prescription for Sonata....any feedback is appreciated. tia! in SJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 23, 2009 Report Share Posted March 23, 2009 TT3/RT3 Ideal ratio greater than 20? Should be greater than 20 nmol 1.41/0.6 nmol gives a ratio of 2.35:1 Whihc is T3 adn which RT3? µg 0.9/0.39 µg gives a ratio of 2.3:1 FT3/RT3 Ideal ratio greater than 10? Should be greater than 20 again which si which? If 5.6 is FT3 and .0056 RT3 your ratio is 10 and should be 20 or higher 5.6 pmol -> 0.0056 nmol/0.6 nmol gives a ratio of 0.0093 !!!!!!!? -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/RT3_T3/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your ratio is... 5.6/0.6 = 9.33 (When the units are both the same, that ratio needs to be greater than 0.020. ) Bill --- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
