Re: i went hyper 3 times in 1 week despite lowering dose-help!

Maybe it is iron related?

after my second iron IV my temps and pulse went up. I guess it was because with

higher ferritin my body used the t3 I take more effeciently.

times in the past 1 week, with temps of 98.69, then 99.1, then 99.4. I had a

fast pulse 120, sometimes over, and the last one I felt short of breath (kind of

like an asthma attack), jittery, and hyper. Yesterday, after the last hyper

feeling, I didn't even take any t3. I checked my temps and pulse all day, around

98-98.4, and slower but not normal pulse. Today, I have low temp 97.54 and

normal pulse, so I took 6 mcg t3. What the __ happened to me? Did all that t3

pooling in my blood all of a sudden get through and make me go hyper? Within 1

week i went from 125mcg to 50mcg. What do I do now?

You may have had early break through or you may have trashed your

adrenals wiht going tooo high too fast. Graphing temops for a few days

and cutting T3 dose in HALF is what I would recommend.
