[QUOTE="Vettester Chris, post: 9781, member: 696"] Tom, the problem at the moment with going on Armour or any NDT medication is that you stand a good chance that T3 will just buildup and pool. Your iron will need to improve in order to get an effective or call it acceptable amount of FT3 into the body. Your binding capacity is good, so that's basically the base that will determine the effectiveness of transferrin saturation against your total iron serum. IMO, you need to aim for the upper quartile of the reference range. IMO, 140ug would be a decent place, which would then put your saturation at approx. 35% (currently 14%), which to me would be spot-on! I think I mentioned in earlier posts that elemental iron therapy doesn't come over night. You need a solid amount of it and it can take several months + to build it where you need it. Additionally, I can't stress the importance of supplementing with Vitamin C in ample amounts when trying to accomplish elevating your iron. Yes, please keep us posted on the cortisol, which will be equally as important in your continued endeavor. [/QUOTE]
