Guest guest Posted March 26, 2010 Report Share Posted March 26, 2010 when taking T3? Is it a lack of iron? Also get some restless legs which I understand is a low iron symptom. Is there a definitive cause of palps and shortness of breath when taking T3? My ferritin is 54. Taking 70 mcgs of cytomel per day...and was able to raise without supplementing lots of iron...but now running into the same symptoms as when I started T3 and couldn't tolerate it.

Guest guest Posted March 26, 2010 Report Share Posted March 26, 2010 NO it si from being HYPOTHYROID> Once you are on enough T3 these symptoms dissapear. They are caused by fluid retention and the heart beating ineffectually. SLOW puLSE from hypo causes lwo oxygen in the blood. -- http://nthadrenalsweb.org/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ http://faqhelp.webs.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/RT3_T3/ http://www.thyroid-rt3.com/ http://groups.yahoo.com/group/HypoPets/ http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 27, 2010 Report Share Posted March 27, 2010 >when taking T3? Is it a lack of iron? It can be hypo symptoms or adrenal symptoms or too much T3. I don't know if it's an iron symptom as well It's more a " something is off balance " than a symptom of any particular issue >Also get some restless legs which I understand is a low iron symptom. Is there a definitive cause of palps and shortness of breath when taking T3? Sorry, life's not that simple >My ferritin is 54.

At 54 you may be bumping into the limit of how much T3 you can take on that much ferritin, The recommendation is a minimum of 70 Nick -- for more information on RT3 and Thyroid Resistance go to www.thyroid-rt3.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
