Guest guest Posted March 29, 2010 Report Share Posted March 29, 2010 Your T3 dose is very small but your symptoms indicate either low ferritin or weak adrenals. Are you still supplementing with iron? Being hypo uses up iron so you need to keep taking it. Heidi > > I started T3 today since my temps have been stable on the HC for the past few weeks. In December my ferritin was 71 and I just had it retested last week, but don't have the results yet. The 71 in December was without supplementing iron. Two years ago, when I was sick (could barely eat for 2 months), and my level was 32. So not sure if that was from lack of eating or perhaps my current level is a false reading at 71. Anyway, I took 6.25 of cynomel at 8:30 a.m. when I took my HC and then I took it again 4 hours later. Nick's website said for anyone starting to take 2 small doses in the morning, first thing and then 4 hours later. I was okay with the first one, but after the second dose I felt light headed, spacey, and just felt weird/ " off " feeling. Tonight I have been dizzy, anxious, etc...I did drink a glass of salt water and it didn't really help. My pulse is 84 and my average temp today was 98.3, been 98.2 for the 5 days prior. Do you think that these feelings could be from taking the two small doses? Should I only take the one tomorrow and hold that for 3-5 days before adding the second 6.25 dose? > > Thanks! > > Terri > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
