Guest guest Posted June 30, 2010 Report Share Posted June 30, 2010 I would appreciate any feed back if you think I need to do any tweeking. Temps are generally 98.6 and pulse a little rapid around 100. I have been on 50 mcg cynomel for about 13 weeks now. Will reverse t3 continue to go down or is simply the ratio that matters?

Guest guest Posted June 30, 2010 Report Share Posted June 30, 2010 As the ratio is the MOST mportant factor I woudl say it will continue ot go down as your T4 is somewhat supressed. What worries me with your resulkts is the high Ferritin . Thsi isdicates some inflammaiton in your body for ti to have jumped this high this fast. With your fast pulse have you tried taking unrefuned sea salted water to see if it lowers it? I would try this and if salt has no effect, thne I woudl reduce th eT3 to get your pulse in the 80's. 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://artisticgrooming.net/ > I would appreciate any feed back if you think I need to do any tweeking.

Guest guest Posted June 30, 2010 Report Share Posted June 30, 2010 I seem to have to take both sea salt and potassium chloride. If I take the salt alone I get bloated. Also both aldosterone tests I took were both high 33 & 36. My doc says this could be a benign tumor and to just keep rechecking my levels to make sure they don't get much higher. The odd thing is BP is on the lower end- go figure?? While potassium and sodium are in range, relatively speaking potassium is lower than sodium. I guess I will back down on cynomel a little and recheck ferritin (I discontinued taking iron supplements 1 month ago) thanks for all your help Val!
