Confused about T3 dose and need advice

January 22, 2010

Nick,

I have not had adrenals or ferritin checked yet. I'm no longer fatigued and

tired. My energy is good. I don't feel like I have symptoms of adrenal

fatigue. The only negative symptoms I have are rapid heart beat, fluctuating

temps, and tightness in chest. So confused about these reactions to such low

doses of Cytomel. Today ( had 6.25 mcg at 5:30 am and then 3 mcg at 1:30 this

afternoon. At 10:00 pm --8+ hours after last low dose, my heart rate was way up

and pounding and I was sitting still for a long time. My temps are low. Felt

better on T3/T4. Am I just being impatient or is this abnormal? Today is day

#6 on T3 only -- could any of this have to do with decay of T4?

Any help is appreciated. Really not sure how to proceed with dosage. Afraid to

stop all together, but afraid to take more with increased bpm.

thanks,

Beth
