> Hi I am taking T3 only.

> Have stopped taking the T3 for a few days as I overdosed (as diagnosed by

Private doc) and experienced fatigue and constant heart palputations. Have

overdosed a couple of times now so dont want to do it again as it makes me feel

so ill been getting up taking children to school and going back to bed not been

able to function properly.

>

> I started the T3 yesterday (taking 12.5mcg split over 4 doses). How much T3

should I start with and when do I increase it so that I dont overdose again? I

really need to slowly incease the T3 bit confused how to do it. I normally take

4 doses a day on wake up, then four hourly with last dose at bedtime (to help me

sleep).

> I have no thyroid (had thyroidectomy) and the most I took prior to overdoing

was 44mcg I cant get past this amount seems to be the most I can take.

> Thanks :-)
