It might be a coincidence, if you stop T4 meds then suddenly you can

convert better as the T4 levels decay, this happened a week in with

me.

Is it really hyper?? high temperature AND pulse??

If it's both then lower T3 for a few days and try increasing again

then

Hi Mike: sorry to hear you hit a snag. You'd mentioned that you'd thought your

adrenals were stabilized. I don't know if you're graphing your temps...if not,

it might be worth doing. I am not sure this is your current issue, but it may

be helpful to check adrenal status.

Here's the link to the adrenal temp graphing page:
