my rt3 came down a lot from 28 to 13. So did my TSH. Which was at 3.11 and it is now at 0.43. Slightly concerned about this, I was only on 25 mcg of t3 and it lowered that much.... typically from what I've seen on the forums, I think it's a bit weird the TSH dropped this much, usually people don't dip that low if they are truly hypo..... My temps and pulse are still low, no improvement... I saw improvement in pulse the first 2 weeks but since then it has dropped back to what it was. This is also concerning. It is almost as if my labs are contradicting each other.... could I be hypo and hyper? The lab results confused me even more.
I went on STTM groups.io and posted this.... they are telling me I need more t3... I don't know if this is true. Please could someone shed some guidance... I don't want my thyroid hormones to fluctuate so much as it probably causes stress on the body. I read that I might need to add t4/t3 instead of just t3. Is this what I should do?
@mostlylurking You are familiar with b1 deficiencies. I would like to mention I was b1 deficient..... the drastic drop in TSH makes me question if I am even hypothyroid just yet. Maybe in the end I was just b1 deficient... but my temps and pulse are still low. I had been supplementing b1 for a couple months as well, similar to the amount of time I have been on t3.
