[QUOTE="Vettester Chris, post: 5004, member: 696"] Eric, can you clarify, were these labs before or after starting the NDT medications. Any iron/ferritin issues being MTHFR positive. Presuming "c" is compound, right? You mentioned the Cortisol tests being "normal". Were they saliva? Any chance that you can post them and/or the circadian profile? Having such high DHEA without exogenous supplements sort of raises the concern on the adrenals, and where cortisol sits. Lastly, everything you are providing, including the potassium assay, raises at least my suspicion with how well your T3 is working at the cellular level. NDT won't be a good thing if your house isn't in order with the transport agents at the cellular level. Has your physician addressed the negative feedback loop with your thyroid isn't function correctly? TSH responds to both T4 & T3, your free T3 ref range value is 28%, but your FT4 is 100%. One of a couple things or call it theories IMO (permitting this without any thyroid meds) ... 1) You have a conversion issue, could be as easy as some Kelp and Selenium. This would mean your pituitary is responding more favorable with the T3 (should be both T4 & T3, but OK), therefore causing the TSH to demand more thyroid production, even though the storage hormone supply (T4) is full. or 2) ... Possibly hyperpituitary, caused by an existing adenoma or disorder. It's all speculation on this part, but hoping you are in alignment with a good doctor. There could be a hundred other possibilities and pathways with this, so hoping others will comment and hopefully shed some additional light. [/QUOTE]
