Guest guest Posted April 15, 2010 Report Share Posted April 15, 2010 I have been on T3 for 9 months now. I have never taken any type of thyroid medicine before. My rT3 was high and I was definitely hypo. I originally took off about 10 pounds quickly. I have taken off another 10 pounds over several months. I feel a lot better, but still struggle with mild depression, lack of focus, and I'm very, very tired. My insomnia has gone away and I sleep 9 hours a night. I fall asleep quickly and sleep well during the night. I take 25 mcg. of cynomel from Mexico every 3 hours. I have never really felt like my rT3 cleared. Maybe every couple of weeks I will have a brief period of less than an hour that I feel a bit jittery, like I have had too much caffeine, but that's it. I started on adrenal support, suggested by my naturopath, about a month ago. I was hoping to not feel so tired, but I really haven't felt a difference. My temperature is still in the mid 96F range, my heart rate is still in the mid 80 range. This is what it was before I started T3 medicine. I am getting blood work results next week. Suggestions? Or do you want to wait and see my blood results? Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
