Known side effect of excess T3. So I've been on 162.5mg (2.5 grains) first thing in a.m. on empty stomach. Observing elevated systolic BP, but normal diastolic, normal HR.
Although TSH is optimized, I am wondering if the isolated systolic hypertension if from the peak plasma concentration of FT3 and if I should split up the dosing.
Labs:
TSH: 1.06
FT3: 5.3 Reference Range: 2.3-4.2 pg/mL
FT4: 1.1
Thoughts?
