Night time dosing of T3 will not keep you awake unless it is an adrenal

reaction. I split miine evenly through the day taking 25-50mcg at every

dose including bedtime. In a healthy person T3 peaks at midnight.

Thanks Val and Lynda,

I am so thankful for the folks on this board!

Also doing the happy dance because I saw a good doc this morning! A

huge answer to prayer!

I'll tie the dosing to my HC dosing then. I'm assuming sublingual is

the way to go so I don't interfere with my iron supps, which I have to

spread throughout the day in order to tolerate them.

Wow, I would really appreciate if anyone could point me to more info

on this. I had no idea my instructions were so far off. My doc told me

to take 2 5mcg tablets in the morning and 2 in the afternoon. I was

switched temporarily to T3 only because I was previously on SRT3 +

synthroid and the doc had me go up on the SRT3 without changing my

Synthroid dose, and I got major hyper symptoms and my RT3 went through

the roof.

I am switching to a new doc, however it's another 5 weeks til my

appointment. Should my dose be divided up into more intervals in the

meantime? I am still hypo but can't go up any further without getting

hyper symptoms. I think I have an adrenal issue but haven't gotten the

test yet (can't pay at the moment)

I would try more intervals, like 4, during the day because it is less stress

on the adrenals.
