Re: Do I have to get my body temperature stable in the 98's b4 starting T3 for r

[Guest guest]

Here's an excellent link on temperature stability:

http://www.drrind.com/therapies/metabolic-temperature-graph

This group does not agree 100% with everything Dr. Rind says, but the graph is

very useful to see if your temperatures are stable enough (adrenals

well-supported enough) to start/raise T3.

> If your temperatures are stable (doesn't matter if they are 96, 97, or even

low 98's) within .2 degrees for 5 days, then your adrenals are happy and being

supported well. So then you can start out with T3, but start with a small dose.

At first your temps might be off, but hold that dose for 5 days, if temps

stabilize, then you can add more. Most people on here, from what I read, seem to

feel more hypo at first. It will take awhile until you find the right dose/clear

your RT3 problem. GOOD LUCK!

> I suffered from fatigue, depression, hypoglycemia, etc... until I started HC

at 20mgs per day (10mg am, 5mg noon, 5mg evening)... My hypoglycemia problems

seemed to vanish, fatigue seemed to improve and I felt not so depressed... Even

tho I started to feel better my body temps still remain unchanged and low...

then I added T3 and I seemed to take a step backwards as far as energy/fatigue

is concerned...
