Most people even with severe Rt3 get SOME good from NT so you might go

MORE hypo before your doc appointment by just stopping. You might feel

better it is hard ot say but that you DO have a severe RT3 problem is

wihtout a doubt. I htink it is better to just reduce to a minimal NT

dose than to just stop it for that long.

Well, I'm only taking 1 1/2 grains of new Armour to begin with, so I

don't think I can go much lower on that without it being pointless-

LOL! My Erfa arrived yesterday. Would it be better for me to switch

to that in the mean time? Or should I just stay with the new Armour

until I run out and then either do Erfa or Cynomel until I see the doc?

I did order some Cynomel to start on but it'll be a week or two

before it gets here. I've been studying STTM pp. 162-163 and http://

thyroid-rt3.com/ for dosing suggestions. Am I correct that I would

start with 25 mcg of that split into 2 doses and add 12.5 mcg doses

every few days until I'm taking 4 or 5 doses a day. And then

increase each dose every few days? STTM seems to indicate that 3

doses/day (am, pm, and bedtime) would be the goal but the other site

says 4-5 times per day and to start with 6.25 mcg doses. I get up at

6:30 am and go to bed between 11 pm and midnight. I take a 2-2 1/2

hour nap every day. My adrenals are being treated and temps have

stabilized on only 15mg HC (in a mix of cream and Isocort).

I would reduce to 1 grain for now an then switch to Cynomel when it

arrives. I take 4 doses a day and htink ofr most people thta is plenty

adn some can get away wiht less but it is not even for me at less doses

a day it just feels better this way so as I am used ot dising 4 times I

stay wiht thta.

Should I start with two 12.5 doses of cynomel and work my way up to four 12.5 doses or start with four 6.25 doses and then add 6.25 every few days?

You can try wiht the 12.5mcg doses and see if your body is too sensitive

for that.

Oops. I've been taking 2 grains of new Armour. Totally screwed that up. Would that be why my resting pulse rate lately has been almost 90 during the day when I take meds. By the time I go to bed at night and haven't taken any thyroid meds for 10-12 hours it is back into the 70s. I was a little worried about starting the cynomel if my pulse was this high on the NT but since I've been taking 1/2 grain more than I had intended to it might not be so bad.
