Try dropping T3 by 10 or so and see how you feel and you may be able to lower the HC as well Nick -- for more information on RT3 and Thyroid Resistance go to www.thyroid-rt3.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 16, 2010 Report Share Posted May 16, 2010 But how can I know if I am taking too much or too little HC? And if I lower the HC dose, maybe I won't tolerate the T3 (in ERFA Thyroid) as I did on higher HC doses?I do have energy, mostly in the mornings, but I also feel "heavy" in my head. This might be HYPOthyroid or HIGH cortisol, for all I know. It's so hard to tell! I'll do an FT3 (and rT3!) on Thursday!What about the sea salt? I have been drinking less and less of this. But there is one thing I don't get: I did 1+ tea spoon daily for 8 months. Then quit it. Now I've been on maybe 1/4 spoon daily (which is not much) - And I feel worse in my head. Maybe I really do need more salt? I did step down on the salt dose when I saw that my aldosterone was "normal". It was in the middle of the range. So... How can aldosterone change like that? 1+ year ago, it was near the bottom low range. Now it's higher. Why?It's the confusion that's horrible - The feeling of not knowing what to do with HC, sea salt etc. > >Thanks! - Feeling desperate, warm and horrible!

Back to the basis scientific principals, try altering it while changing one thing at a time and see how you feel When you swapped some T3 for natural did you do this as a 2 stage process, drop some T3 immediatly and more in a week's time???? >I do have energy, mostly in the mornings, This is where dose timing can help, how are you timing the HC and Erfa/T3?? >but I also feel " heavy " in my head. This might be HYPOthyroid or HIGH cortisol, for all I know. It's so hard to tell! I'll do an FT3 (and rT3!) on Thursday! You drop the HC a little and see how you feel, IF you have cleared RT3 from the receptors you may well need less HC now to be able to utilise the same amount of thyroid. > >What about the sea salt?

Now I've been on maybe 1/4 spoon daily (which is not much) - And I feel worse in my head. Maybe I really do need more salt? You try more and see how you feel, if it helps then you were not on enough. You really do have to alter one thing at a time and try changes to find what works, the exception being sometimes you need to alter HC and Thyroid together Nick -- for more information on RT3 and Thyroid Resistance go to www.thyroid-rt3.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 16, 2010 Report Share Posted May 16, 2010 I can tell you that when I tried t3 without taking HC I became very hot all the time. Maybe you are not on enough HC? Hope this helps... > > >But how can I know if I am taking too much or too little HC?
