Guest guest Posted January 20, 2008 Report Posted January 20, 2008 I would say from your symptoms temps and BP falling you need more HC. MOst of us that have similar symptoms mnee d25-35mg daily. You are also quite hypothyroid still but the T3 loks higher in your blood due to low cortiosl. I am betting the bottom fell out and you have transitioned ot a higher stage (worse) or AF since the saliva labs. You should also ask for aldosterone testing as I see in one lab your sodiu was 139 which is too lwo and that same lab showing very low potassium which is a compensatory thing the body does wiht long term low sodium. -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ Quote
Guest guest Posted January 20, 2008 Report Posted January 20, 2008 Thanks Val! You are an angel to read my post & reply. I so appreciate you & I'm glad that you are going to have some help moderating. I don't know how you do it, but I'm sooo thankful for you & everyone else here that is so willing to share. What do you think about the Hemoglobin & Hematocrit. Does this mean that I don't need to have ferritin tested? So would you up the morning HC dose to 10, then 5,5,5. Or should I go in smaller increments more times daily? Do you think I need to wait to add more Armour? I am so ready to feel better. Also as far as I can tell I've never been tested for Thyroid antibodies. Do you see anything in the lab results I do have that indicate I might need those tests and/or RT3? Again, thanks Val & God bless you! Hopefully I will be able to make some sense out of this & eventually I will be able to help others, too. > > I would say from your symptoms temps and BP falling you need more HC. > MOst of us that have similar symptoms mnee d25-35mg daily.
