I am taking around 25 mcg daily. My temps in the morning are very low. So I think I also have some liver issues. I got a fasted liver metabolic panel done and nothing came out abnormal although my direct bilirubin was a bit high. My temps and pulse after taking t3 and eating rise but it is still low. My basal temps are low still. The highest I can seem to get it after eating is like 97.5. Oral I can get it into the low 98s. It is close to the optimal but my pulse is low. I can't get it above 75 and I am not active at all.
I don't think I need a whole lot more thyroid, maybe another 25 mcg? I still have dry skin and other hypo symptoms like constipation. My bowel movements were great for a bit then it's slowly started to get worse. I want to get on a t4/t3 combo, just because I notice that my temps and pulse and hypo symptoms return in the morning because for some reason my liver isn't working well enough to sustain my levels through the night. But I fear that my rt3 will rise again (initially they were really high). I think I had a conversion issue so I fear I still won't convert t4 to t3 as effectively as I should be, which will probably cause my rt3 to rise again. Does anyone have any advice here for me?
