Guest guest Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 Didn't sleep great well last night (but still better than before T3. Woke up again @6 and took my am dose of T3 - 25 mcg--and fell back to sleep. Since getting up at 7:30 I have been SO TIRED! My temps are normal, maybe a tad low @98.8 for where I am, but my pulse is 100. Have I gone past my adrenals ability, and if so why if I'm taking my normal dose? Trying to figure out if I need to take more T3 or hold off. Any thoughts? Thanks. I've been trying to put a chart together (from the website and comments here) to be able to consult, but can't find the answer to this from what I've gathered so far: Fast pulse, missing heart beats, and a low temperature: -Classic symptoms low sodium. -Try the " salted water test " and see if your pulse drops within an hour Fast pulse and a High temperature: -Infection or too much t3 and temporarily HYPERthyroid. -Reduce T3 for a day to a much lower dose. -In 24 hours, build up over a day or two to find your dose, taking care not to overshoot. Fast pulse and temps low: -Might indicate either high T3 or adrenaline form low cortisol. Normal rate pulse but Heart pounding. Temps are low but stable: -Heart pounding is usually low thyroid or adrenal stress. -Low temps confirm it is not high T3. Try upping T3. Temp drops, very tired after T3: -Divide the T3 into smaller doses and take them more often. -If this doesn't work, adrenal support. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
