Labs and symptoms suggest hypo but very high hart rate

[Guest guest]

Nick, many thanks for your answer!

Let's see, electrolites were a bit low, but I am supplementing and last times I

have tested were very good. Vitamin B12 and D were low but I have been

supplementing and are quite good now. Ferritin was 120 one month ago or so (have

supplemented iron as well). Aldosterone was actually quite high (way above

range) last month. I asked my doctor and he said is not so uncommon to have high

aldosterone when supplementing HC... As for cortisol, I don't really know, I

have been reducing the dose little by little since clearance (almost 3 months

ago) and I have not noticed clear adverse reactions.

So, this is now my situation 15 HC, 62.5 T3, I feel tired, particularly I can't

face to be standing up, my BP is quite low (10.2/5.9 or lower), heart rate is

high. I still feel hypo symptoms (like dry eyes, back pain, and, of course,

depresion, etc). Basal temps are changing quite a bit but I can't say much about

daily average temps because I haven't been cheking regularly lately. I feel even

less resistant to stress now than before I started any treatment... It is really

hot weather now where I live, 36/37 C and I am having a very bad time coping

with that, my legs hurt and just can't face life right now...

So, I guess everything should be O.K. now, except T3 dose or adrenals. But I

have been trying going up and down both with cortisol and T3 and I can't find

any clear improvements.
