Hello,
I've send my cousin who has Hashimoto thyroiditis some NDT (Thyroid-S) as for years she felt miserable on Euthyrox (T4 only). Her recent dose was 125 mcg of T4 a day.
She felt instant better. Increased mood, energy levels, reduce swelling. Unfortunately she recently started to have a tight feeling in her throat. What that might be..?
She also is concern about her low TSH, as she is planing to have a baby in few months (I mean to get pregnant in few months). I know Peat's opinion about TSH, but she is concern with her low level. I guess it's even lower than RP recommends..?
She has blood work after 1 month of being on 2 grains (120 mg of pig thyroid extract).
FT3: 3,89 (Lab Norm: 1,71-3,71) pg/ml
FT4: 0,85 (Lab norm: 0,7 - 1,48) ng/dl
TSH: 0,0095 (Lab Norm: 0,3500 - 4,9400) mcg IU/ml
anti-TPO: 66,37 (Lab Norm: 0,0 - 5,61) IU/ml
anti-TG: 15,6 (Lab Norm: 0,00 - 4,11) IU/ml
Her antibodies are high, but before they were <1000. I would say it's a healing process and she is on the right path. What's your idea guys and girls?
