Guest guest Posted January 19, 2010 Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 Hi all,I've just joined this group, but have been on the natural thyroid/adrenal group for a while now. It's just come to my attention that you all recommend upping T3 fairly quickly. I've been on 20 mgs for about three weeks now. I'm on 30 mgs HC as well. I'm having some of the pounding heart symptoms if I wake up in the night, but it's not so bad that it's waking me out of sleep. My ferritin has gone up some due to ferritin shots, but is still low (39). I'm doing another round of 6 shots once a week. My temps aren't anything like stable, so I thought I shouldn't raise the T3 until that happens and my ferritin is in range. Is this correct? What to do to eliminate the heart symptoms? Thanks so much!Best,Tara Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 19, 2010 Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 No we do nto necessarily recommend raising T3 quickly. ESPECIALLY wiht weak adrneals and even more so with low Ferritin. You MUST go slwo wiht low ferritin as it wil lmake the adrenal symptoms 10X worse by going too fast. You need ot increase as your body will tolerate it. If oyu feel anxiety from an increae ti si mor than your body can handle. The heart sympotoms are mainly from the low ferritin and will go away as you raise it. -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/RT3_T3/ http://groups.yahoo.com/group/HypoPets/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 19, 2010 Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 Val, But I shouldn't be raising until my temps are stable, correct? It's interesting that I'm just getting the heart symptoms now, however, even though my ferritin has increased. Thanks! Tara > > No we do nto necessarily recommend raising T3 quickly.
