Guest guest Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 Hi there I came off my levothyroxine last year and started on t3 only with wonderful support on here i bought from mexican pharmacy. My gp now prescribes me it after i showed him how my tsh came down from 38 to 28 then down to 9.1. My endo left me totally confused after i had a right old discussion with him about the benefit of t3 only and he strongly recommended i went back on 100mgs thyroxine and only 20mg t3 i refused point blank to which he said well your gp can manage you now!! My gp the only one in our practice that will back me is off on leave for 2 weeks and typical i feel really unwell all of a sudden. I have certain hypo symptoms still ie aching terribly my legs feel like lead im having trouble walking and i feel so down which i never experience. I have however got more energy but my t3 was 9 which was high but guess it would be which maybe suggests im hyper but im so confused as if im hypo ie these awful pains and feeling so tired why would i also be hyper ie racing mind more energy but still very tired if that makes sense! I am taking 80mgs t3 tried cutting it down and felt worse my heartrate has increased but not so it bothers me im due bloods in 2 weeks but need to know what to do now as i feel really ill, do you think i should add t4 or stick just with t3? Sorry this is so long i have noone else i can discuss it with Thankyou x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
