Guest guest Posted January 1, 2010 Report Share Posted January 1, 2010 Hi Val, Happy New year all! I've been on NT now for 3 weeks (cleared my RT3) and thought I was doing pretty well on it EXCEPT that I am now experiencing unexplained bruises again (arms and legs). I was on 60 mcg of T3 those last weeks of my 12 week period before I switched as that seemed to be enough for me and now I am taking 2 grains of NT. I tried to raise my NT by 1/2 or even 1/4 grain but I get a pounding heart. My ferritin was close to 70 last time I had it checked so I think I'm OK there. Any ideas? I am 19 weeks pregnant as well. Thanks so much, in Ca Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 1, 2010 Report Share Posted January 1, 2010 Vitamin C and it's relatives hesperiden, rutin, (and many otherrelated compounds) are responsible for keeping the cell membranes and capillaries strong. I'm NOT saying this is the problem....BUT....it;s worth a try!!! emergen-c is a good brand in a packet in a box of maybe 20? and you might want to try it 3 or 4 times a day to see if it helps. it makes a fizzy dring. I dont like fizzy, so i put it in 1/3 cup and swallow it as fast as i can. it also has some minerals etc. that's what I suggest C.
