Some Solid SHBG Science

What dose of T3 are you currently taking.

The capsules are mixed T3 and T4 and my daily dose now is 40 mg T3 and 100 mg T4. It looks like a lot on paper, but I cant feel any difference if I run out and it takes 2 weeks to get a refill.

I think it's 40 mcg of T3. I really don't feel that much of a difference when I increase my dose of T3. Where I really see a difference is in my LDL levels.

Yes, 40 mcg is correct. It doesn't seem to help my LDL levels or raise my SHBG or give me more energy or really do any of the things that thyroid meds are supped to do. Weird, but not surprising to me as that is how I respond to just about everything. Novocaine at the dentist, pain meds, etc.
