Should be fine. A jump in temperature is expected at ovulation and at

your period, does that tie up with the jump there???

Today is day 10 of cycle, so I did not yet ovulate. My temps do tend to go up as I get closer to ovulation and then they dip and again increase as I get closer to menstruation. I expect to ovulate within the next few days, and a rise in temp with confirm that.,

that 98.3 temp was when I was still having some fever, and began increasing hc from 35 to 55, which seemed to stop the earache/sore throat, and alll-over flu-like symptoms. as soon as I upped my hc to thr 60-90 range my temps have somwhat stabiized. So last night I added 2.5 mcg cytomel. Am I going too slow or should I aim for a bit more?

thanks for all your help! I'd love to add a lot of t3 but I know I don't do well with big increases. And the small increases make me so impatient. My tsh is reaching in the 80's (I'm thyroidless due to cancer) and am anxious to bring my tsh down as fast as I can, but it seems fast is not in the dictionary here..

Iwould say you can try 5mcg increases with T3 every 3-5 days. As long as

anxiety does nto worsen, you shoudl be fine , I would also lwoer that HC

as sopon as oyu are certian the infeciton is gone you had.

Thank you, Val, for weighing in Much appreciated!

Thing is, this amount (60-90) of hc helps control my shakes.

This morn was the second morn I woke up without the shakes.

Last nite my last dose of hc was 5 mg at 7 pm (I had been dosing 10 mg every two hours throughout the day totalling 60-70; so it seems I am simply filling up reserves) and I woke up without the shakes (I did take a nice amount of klonopin to get sufficient sleep)

Woke up tired, stuffy head, stuffy sinuses, slight earache, so not sure the infection/bug/whatever is totally cleared yet.

But will increase by 5 mcg t3 every three to five days, being on the lookout for anxiety. (the hc takes care of the anxiety, iit is soooo calming; my theory is that it keeps my adrenaline from acting up)

What a roller-coaster of a ride...though since I'm on higher hc I'm beginning to see the light at the far end of a long tunnel

Gotta go order more cytomel/cynomel as I am running very low.

Thanks, Val,

I am not sure infection or whatever-it-is is gone as my head still feels stuffy and I am feeling so run down like I can go under my covers for the day. Yesterday I did less than 80 hc and I am feeling more run-down today. I shoulda maintained the 90 hc I think.

Anyway, will increase by 5 mcg t3 every 5 days or so, until I run out of it. Still haven't made up my mind which cytomel/cynomel to switch over to.

I feel so sick, flu-like, and seems only 90 hc or so does it for me. I dropped down to 70 yesterday and i'm feeing worse today.

Funny thing is, later in the day i feel better, maybe after hoarding up on hc all morning long?

or do i feel so run-down and out-of-sorts as a result of the klonopin that i took last nite?

I pray for the time when I can peacefully fall asleep without any klonopin/xanax...
