[QUOTE="ratbag, post: 129620, member: 972"] Not everyone can get their FT3 and FT4 corrected on just NDT. In your case your first thyroid labs after being on NDT (post #6) show you were below range for FT4. And your still low despite your FT3 looking good near the top of range. You need to supp Synthroid(T4) + (NDT or Cytomel(T3) to get this balanced. Your RT3 looks ok but with iron so low it's hard to say. HarryCat2 is correct you should try just synthroid alone first and see if it raises your FT3. If it does stick with that if not you'll have to add T3. Good idea on doing the saliva cortisol labs. They will be necessary. Be sure you get the 4 x diurnal saliva labs... this measures your saliva 4 times during the day... in the morning when you get out of bed, lunchtime, dinner time and bedtime.
