These are my most recent labs. I initially got on t3 because 1. I had a high reverse t3 which was out of the range and a TSH of 3.11. 2. my temps+pulse were low 3. I had classic symptoms of hypo
After being on 25 mcg of t3 for 3 months the labs posted above are what my levels are at.... however..... My waking pulse and temps are still baseline.... (which is one of my concerns, would t3+t4 be better for me?) They rise after taking t3 and eating however, but I can't get my temps over 98. Nor my pulse over 80. I am not athletic either so it's not like my pulse is lower because of my athletic status. I still feel like I am hypo, I don't think I feel good. I remember starting and I felt amazing.... I now have also been noticing my bowel movements are becoming slower.... Don't know what is going on.... Really need advice!
Could the issue be that I'm taking enough t3 for my body to down regulate... however the dose isn't high enough or my body wants t3/t4, and hence I still have symptoms, TSH came down a lot and so did my rt3 so I don't know...
