[QUOTE="Mr. T, post: 105840, member: 17587"] Edit: the Title should be "1.5 grains..." which is 3 capsules (I can't edit the Title of the post). I've been on 1.5 grains (3 capsules) of NDT for 102 days and my thyroid numbers and overall symptoms have remained the same. I was started on 1/2 grain for 10 days, then 1 grain for 10 days, then 1.5 grains until the present. Dec/2017: TSH 3.72 (.45 - 4.50) Free T4 1.06 (.82 - 1.77) Free T3 3.1 (2.0 - 4.4) April/2018: TSH 3.48 (.45 - 4.5) Free T4 1.01 (.82 - 1.77) Free T3 3.0 (2.0 - 4.4) Reverse T3 14.6 (9.2 - 24.1) TPOAb 18 (0 - 34) TGAb <1 (0.0 - 0.9) It was mentioned on another thread that some guys take up to "4 to 6 grains/day." I didn't want to hijack that thread, so my question is: [B]How does the Doc/patient know whether to only increase NDT, eliminate it and replace it with T3 and/or T4, or do a combination of NDT, T3, and T4?[/B] I have a follow-up mid-June and am wondering what to try next. Also, if I should even refill my current non-working NDT prescription before then. [/QUOTE]
