Re: Help what do my labs mean? High Free T3

Hi Tahilia Your levels show hypothyroidism and your doc was right when he put you on meds - especially when you're hoping to have a baby. 0,1mg is quite a large starting dose - usually the medication is started with a lower dose (25-50 mcgs). Keep an eye for possible HyperT symptoms - if those occur a small med decrease is in order. Good luck
