Re: Re: Can't raise basal temps/louise

Okay I just noticed that you mentioned Vit D at least 50. I've not heard this before and mine is lower than 50, I've been supplementing but so far I can't go higher than 75 of T3 without having a racing heart rate. My temps are all lower too 97.6. I just figured I'll never get it up. My iron and everything else is fine. Can one little thing as Vit D make this big of a difference? My vit D is 35.Louise

Thanks Nick. Oddly, my pulse is lower on 112.5 mg/day of cynomel than it was on 100 mg/day (77 vs. 84) not a huge difference but I would expect just the opposite. I divide the cynomel into 5 doses. Temps taken as per Dr. Rind's graph very similar most days: 96.8/98.1/98.1 = avg 97.7. Temps always drop after exercise (sounds adrenal but I'm on 35mg HC/day). Waiting on ferritin & Vit D test results now; just got some Venofer IVs so ferritin should be 70 if not even higher.

>We propose Vitamin D Deficiency Syndrome (VDDS) exists when 25(OH)D levels of

less than 50 ng/mL are found in patients with two or more of the following

conditions: osteoporosis, heart disease, hypertension, autoimmune diseases,

certain cancers, depression, chronic fatigue, or chronic pain.

Have a look round their site, it makes interesting reading
