Need help dosing T3 and HC re have the flu

[Guest guest]

I'm in my 7th week of T3 only and Val said my ratios look great. I caught some

bug from my granddaughter that has had me in bed since last Friday. I've stayed

on 40mg of HC rather than decrease as I'd planned and added a bit more for

stress dosing, and reduced my T3 from 137.5, which I'd just upped one day, down

to 100..it was by accident as my brain hasn't been working so well. I stayed off

cold meds from Fri til Monday night when I took Nyquil to sleep and have been

taking a half dose of over the counter cold/flu pills. Dr.Mercola's site said to

increase protein to acidify the body, which I've done, and am already taking

4000mg C, and didn't want to increase that.

Like many here, I'm also concerned about the extra 20 lbs I've gained and the

recurring hypo symptoms since Armour reformulation last spring. Just went off

Armour 4/22/10 to T3 only...and seem to be converting muscle to fat. Also, my

fingernails, esp the pinky on both hands, are splitting and peeling off.

I've started a high fat, medium protein, low carb diet, wondering if all those

years of low fat/low carb and an hour a day of exercise have been part of my

problem. I'm afraid to exercise now re adrenals just seem to be getting better

after two years on HC.

Haven't been consistent taking my temps or BP since Fri, but temps seems to be

increasing in the early am from 97.2-4 to 97.8-98. Should I stay on 100mg

generic Cytomel and 40mg HC for a while?

Thanks,

I would and I awould pump up vitamin D for a week or so with double

doses to boost your immune system.

Val, I'm taking 4000 D3. Should I double that?

Thanks,
