Re: Can't raise basal temps - repost

[Guest guest]

Hello

I attempted to switch to cynomel and tried taking 25mcg three times a day, and

had the worst reaction to it. It seemed like I had really high cortisol symptoms

(red face, itchy skin, pouring with sweat) so I've gone back to the generic T3.

I've just spent the last five days on a very active winter holiday so I don't

see how I could have any high cortisol at all. I've reduced my HC intake to 35mg

a day.

Nothing I do works with this T3 stuff. I followed the instructions for clearing

RT3 to the letter and there was no " breakthrough " . My temps are still rockbottom

every morning. I feel no better than when I was on t4.

Is there any point in carrying on with this? I seem to have got nowhere at all

over the past three years.

Did you get FT3 labs while on a " good " dose of T3? Have you tested wiht

a full iron panel? How about saliva cortisol? These are the things we

have found ot be VITAL to gettign FT3 into the cells.
