T3 problem

[Guest guest]

I can't find my original post on here about high temps when starting T3...(maybe

I posted it on the adrenal board and forgot...Not sure)

Anyway, I had begun 5 mcg of T3 9 days ago. The first day on it I felt great but

my temps went up to 99+. I was pretty hot most of the day/evening. Over the week

I continued to run 99+ temps all day, even at 10pm. Morning basals were 98.4. I

felt fine in the am, but after taking my am t3 dose the sweating and hyperT

symptoms would begin and continue the rest of the day/evening.

I began tracking pulses with the temps. Those were in the high 90's. By day 7 my

temps were pushing 99.4, sometimes higher. Felt jittery, internal vibrations,

sweating all night, shaking hands...etc. I am on 25mg of HC and salt.

All my symptoms say hyperthyroid. I did not take my am dose yesterday to see

what would happen. My pulses went back into the 70-80's. Temps didn't go down

yet. Got brain foggy and broke down and took 2.5mcg of T3. I was sorry I did

that. Spend the rest of the day in hyperT hell. Didn't sleep hardly last night,

internal vibrations, pounding heart...etc. Needless to say. I didn't take any T3

at all today.

So far, my pulses are in the 80's. My temps are not down yet but I still feel

hyper and am sure it takes time to dump the extra hormones. This is the same

thing that happen to me when I was on 1 3/4 grains of NT and 25mg of HC and the

doc had me raise to 30mg of HC. I went hyper and had to cut my NT back to 1/2

grain.

Anyway.....to add insult to injury I finally got my T3 order today. After only

18 days. lol.

If anyone is interested in buying an unopened bottle of cyanomel email

me....because I still have my script here that I filled and will keep that on

hand in case I have to go back on T3 later on when I get some of this sorted

out. It doesn't look like I am going to need all this T3.

What a journey. I will keep you posted if I figure the ills of my odd body. But

with the swelling I have on HC and the hyperness on T3..I don't think any of

this is working for me and I need to reassess things and start from scratch.

Ugh.
