[QUOTE="Vettester Chris, post: 7182, member: 696"] jger, definitely a lot of information. Glad you posted it, but I'll just grab a few parts and hopefully others will have questions and comments as well. Can you explain the need for a monthly therapeutic phlebotomy? That will obviously contribute to lowing your iron and ferritin levels. Additionally, that will factor in your thyroid productivity. Have you looked into any elemental iron supplements? Yes, you are correct, it's a good assumption that your T3 is pooling. Being that your temperature is on the 'low' end, but stable for the most part (a little higher after workouts), would by symptomatic of hypothyroidism. If T3 isn't getting to the cells, then this sort of stuff happens. I would back off the T3 medication for the time being. How often to you take your HC meds? Do you mimic the body's natural pattern of higher levels in the AM, tapering in a circadian pattern of the course of the day? Do you have any magnesium and vitamin D3 labs? Additionally, when all the dust settles and everything is on the 'normal' track, I would suggest looking deeper into a NDT medication, which will provide T4, T3, T2 & T1. Many benefits IMO with going this route, I suggest reviewing it a little further. Did your physician run any antibodies (TPO and/or TgAb)? [/QUOTE]
