I had high rT3 and went thru yahoo groups protocol. I now take 112mcg cynomel none of the hyper side effects although I have a heart condition and am super sensitive to hyper symptoms. The good thing is that high T3 symptoms are short lived due to the short half life of T3.

Your temps aren't that good if the 2 listed are your daily averages in a row.
The moderator on yahoo can advise you on your iron levels, Val is really knowledgeable.

Do you have any hypo symptoms?

As I understand, your body will continue to make T4 that converts to rT3 and T3, if those receptors are blocked with rT3 it won't make any difference how much T3 you take until you shut down your thyroid production. Honestly I would be leery of doing this without a drs guidance. It would be interesting to know your thyroid antibody levels too.
