Guest guest Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 Hi Sheila and all Just returned from my holidays in France. You may remember I had a telephone conversation with Dr B prior to going giving me advice regarding what I thought to be a symptom of over medication. Well I took his advice and took t4 100 instead of 125 and T3 10 but one week into the hol started to feel very tired aching joints and weak muscles so I increased the T3 to 20. symptoms did ease as per the aching and tiredness went a bit. Leg thigh cramp saga however continues, I am totally fed up with it now, it is now 12 months since these cramps arrived when I had been on T4 for 11 months no problems up until then. I am having another blood test at the end of this week. I feel now as though I dont think they will ever go away and I will just have to be a " miserable moan " as that it what I can be like when the cramps are particularly bad. I am seriously wondering if it could be the T4 that is the root cause of these pains last bloods showed T4 11.4 T3 6.4 and TSH 0.04. I feel so close now to trying Armour but I really dont want to have to pay for it on top of all vits and supplements and then it may not work anyway. I feel as though I have tried everything, I take 2-3 NAE daily selenium 200mg, Zinc 10 Vit c 1000mg Magnesium 150 mg but still they continue. From a fed-up lizzie at the end of her tether now.
