When you take thyroid supplement regardless of the formula, if TSH level is in range the thyroid supplement dose is appropriate. T3 is usually not checked when we monitor treatment for hypothyroidism. However, if T4 is also borderline high and TSH is borderline low, dose of Amour thyroid may need to be reduced slightly but your doctor should know best.

I would discuss with your Dr. He will know the lab issues there better than we do here.
