You can take up to 900microgram per day, I don`t think that anabolics contribuite, but low carbohydrate diet yes.

Take you body temperature 10 minute beffore getting out of bed in the morning if is 97.8 to 98.2 is normal if is less than 97.8 your thyroid function is sluggish.

Very interesting, because this is the basis for a blogger named Matt Stone on 180degreehealth. He feels low metabolisms are a problem and declining body temperatures are a major issue. Low carb and dieting are culprits, he suggests testing body temp in the morning just as u said.

His method for recovering metabolism/hypothyroidism issues is refeeding with lots of carbs such as potatoes rice yams and resting as much as possible.

If you can get your body temperature up alot of health ailments start to leave you and your hormones can normalize. Very interesting stuff!

I may leave a message on his blog leading him to this thread and the supplements you suggest because I have not seen him to a write up on any of those just possibly desicated thyroid as a last resort.

900mcg is not that low, start with 900mcg for 6 weeks and 50 to 60 mcg selenium, and check you body temperature every morning, if after 6 weeks is no change then go up to1500mcg.

am i correct in thinking that is 1.5mgs ?

GET THE RIGHT TEST DONE!

If you do see your physician and they agree to do a blood work up, make sure to get the RIGHT test done...

You want:
1) TSH
2) Free T3
3) Free T4

You can have a normal TSH BUT a low T3 and/or low T4.
I feel like an idiot myself being an ICU nurse and I screwed up on this... when I went to the Doctor for my now diagnosed sleep apnea they included a bunch of blood tests for other possible problems, one of them being thyroid. She ordered JUST a TSH, not a free T4 AND free T3 as well... I didn't clarify what she said, so when I got my blood work back I was rather upset (the CPAP has SIGNIFICANTLY helped my lethergy, but there is still some residual, so I'd like to be able r/o my thyroid). So now, I will have to go back to her office, explain this and then get the test done.
