Guest guest Posted March 11, 2010 Report Share Posted March 11, 2010 hi val, i've been stable for a little while, thankfully, but that seems to have changed. a couple of weeks ago i dropped my hc from 30 to 27.5 and seemed fine. i started to get really bad pms symptoms a week ago, and even with my period almost ending, i still feel the same...very irritable, sad, sweats, headaches, loss of appetite, nausea, tired, apathetic but still keep going... the other day i had a light bulb go off in my head when i had high (for me) bp and pulse. i remembered that i got a new brand of T3 and started mixing that in with the other brand, so i thought i was hyperthyroid. so, two days ago i dropped my T3 dose from 68.75 to 62.5. today, i am just super tired, sad, no appetite, apathetic - almost all of the same symptoms. what should i do? thanks, -tc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 11, 2010 Report Share Posted March 11, 2010 From most people thta have taken both the generic is reported weaker than name brand. SO I would assume going to Cytomel from generic you would need a tad less. -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/RT3_T3/ http://groups.yahoo.com/group/HypoPets/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 11, 2010 Report Share Posted March 11, 2010 that's what i figured, which is why i dropped. but, i haven't seen my symptoms change. what should i do? do they sound like hypoT to you or low cortisol? if hypoT, do i just wait it out? > > From most people thta have taken both the generic is reported weaker > than name brand.

Guest guest Posted March 11, 2010 Report Share Posted March 11, 2010 Give it a couple days. it takes time for excess T3 to be used up. -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/RT3_T3/ http://groups.yahoo.com/group/HypoPets/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
