Guest guest Posted January 25, 2010 Report Share Posted January 25, 2010 Hi everyone. Need some advice please. I think HC is causing me problems. I have weaned down to 10mg slowly and some things have improved. I noticed after each dose I am getting debilitating flu symptoms. I once thought it was the T3 but it dosen't appear to be that. I have done an experiment on a couple of occasions by not taking any HC and felt better. I did this again today and have not had any flu symptoms at all. Would I be safe enough to stop the hc. I know it's not a good idea but I feel as sick as a dog when I take it. I take 10mg split in 4 doses. I also lost 4kg since decreasing. Thanks Margo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you feel better without it then try it for a few days while graphing temperatures and see if they stay stable Nick -- for more information on RT3 and Thyroid Resistance go to www.thyroid-rt3.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 26, 2010 Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 Thanks for that. I was on 25mg and reduced slowly and things got a little better especially the weight. Day 2 on no HC so far still no flu symptoms and I no more tired than the usual. What side effects are there from just stopping HC? Thanks Margo > > >Would I be safe enough to stop the hc.

Guest guest Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 This is my 5th day no HC still not flu symptoms but as expected I am noticing when standing I get a little dizzy and some slight air hunger. Should I just ride it out or reintroduce some HC for awhile, if so how much. Thanks in advance Margo > > > > >Thanks for that.

Guest guest Posted January 30, 2010 Report Share Posted January 30, 2010 Val- I weaned slowly from 25mg to 10mg. Lost quite a bit of weight in the process. I had terrible flu symptoms so for a day I stopped the HC as an experiment and no flu symptoms same on day two and have not had any hc or those symptoms since. Today will be day 6.

Guest guest Posted January 30, 2010 Report Share Posted January 30, 2010 Wel flu sym0ptoms are lwo cortils symp0tms and your adnreals are LIKELY to crash the first stress oyu come across as you are running on the reserves you built before and it does nto sound to me liek you are ready to come off it entirely. I would go bakc on at least 10mg or oyu could try Isocort at this point . -- 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 30, 2010 Report Share Posted January 30, 2010 Oh boy seems like no matter which way I go I am in trouble. I tried 2.5mg and got bad flu symptoms, seems odd when I don't take it I have none. Even up on 25mg I felt awful and blew up.
