Guest guest Posted February 17, 2008 Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 Hi everyone For about 4 months I was on 1 1/2 grain armour with 20mg HC. Armour: HC: 1/2 - 6AM 10mg -6AM 1/2 - 10Am 5mg-10AM 1/2 - 2 PM 5mg-2PM I felt GREAT for 4 months, even lost 10 pounds. Slept good... well I started feeling hypo so I uppped my morning armour by 1/4 g. for a week and now doing 1 grain in the moring with 12.5 mg HC. The rest of the day is the same dosage. My problem is, I feel good for about an hour and half then start feeling kinda shakey and extremely tired and lethargic. I tried taking an extra 2.5 mg about then and it doesn't help at all. Should I increase HC ? I need to be alert at my job. I wish I felt as good as a month ago! Lilly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 17, 2008 Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 I would have increased the SECOND dose to 7.5mg rather than add more to the first dose which then lowers your ACTH too much and ths lowers your cortiosl later in the day. -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/RT3_T3/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was afraid 1 grain would be too much for me at once. Lilly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
