    So bloodwork was interesting. I was taking (and am still) a dessicatd otc thyroid gland the last 6 weeks. Apparently i was taking too much because this time i came back hyperthyroid!!! I was so floored. Esp since i was doing IF( but using coffee w butter and mct oil in it) and als very low  carb most days.  Any how i a m lowering my supplement and will retest in3 weeks. But good news i guess is that it did not reduce my thyroid function. At least not more than my supplement was compensating for.

    How close to the blood draw did you take your supplement? Might've had an effect on the results.

    What is your thyroid sup? T4 or T3?What was the full results of the blood work if you dont mind?

    I take thyrogold which is a bovine dessicated gland formula. Has both t3 and t4. Yes I took my meds that day but the doc told me that this is what he wants because thyroid builds up in the body so that it is an accurate representation of the status.  FT4 1.87FT3 4.9TSH .021Tsh had been 2.5. So good sized jumpFt3 and ft4 had been in normal range
