Blood Work... question

[Steve123]

Guys,

I have been administering 100mcg of research t3 to my lab specimen. The specimen is at a slight calorie deficit and two thing have happened in the past 3 weeks. 1) the specimen gained weight - didn't loose an once; and 2) I tested the specimens TSH yesterday and it came back elevated.

Typically, wouldn't we expect TSH to be crushed with 100mcg of T3? I know for me personally, I've used Pharma grade t3 at not even half this dose and experienced marked side effects.

I would like to get some thoughts on this before I contact the sponsor of this product. I will not mention them yet as I feel it is unfair to even appear to be calling them out before I'm sure its not an issue on my end.

anyone?

How does the T3 feel? Speaking in terms of lab rats is pointless btw.

Perhaps... However, what about the TSH levels. How could TSH be elevated with 100mcg T3?

Also, re: feel. I agree but anacdotally, in the past using HG t3 at even half that dose has some sigificant side effects.

I'm curious why you only had your TSH tested? You can definitely feel T3, especially if you take too much.

Well, my doc did it a few months back as part of her regular blood work. TSH was elevated. Just the other day she wanted to re-test and it was still pretty high, albeit in normal range.

I think my lesson is clear.... only HG T3 going forward. I will probably PM the person on the board where I got the RC product.
