>i take 100mcg thyroxine and 3/4 grain armour.

That's not a big dose, did you say you are running out of something??

Are you having trouble getting more of one of them? I have some

Natural left if you are stuck for it.

>i think my adrenals are bad. i survived with hypothyroidism til i had a tsh of

347 and my t4 was less than the lab could measure.

Ouch, how are the Drs so incompetent as to let people get that hypo.

>with hindsight the problem started in 1987. the irony is i felt better with no

thyroid hormone than i have since about six months after i started replacement

when my life went bang. i really don't think my body was ready to take the

hormones.

Low adrenals/ferritin most likely

>my private doc is against HC and offers me licorice root, which i tried years

ago.

>i know the way i feel is part of the thyroid imbalance but have not cracked it

yet.

>i will let you know what my reverse t3 result is.

>there is an answer!

There is. A lot of people need more than licorice, Have you read the

adrenal sections of the STTM site?

>i run out of armour on thursday and should get my reverse t3 result the same

day.

I have some spare old Armour here if you need it just e-mail me your

address off list.

>i was planning to take liothyronine and thyroxine. i will see my private gp on

friday and if my reverse t3 is not good have the discussion about Hc and t3

only.

Mixed T3/T4 is fine as long as RT3 is not in the way

>is it safe to take hc?

Yes, especially if you need it!

>do some people take t3 only long term, or is it just while the rt3 clears.

Yes, I tried going back to Natural and it didn't work for me. I am

planning on T3 only long term.
