Guest guest Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 I don't know if you remember me, but you helped me tremendously over at STTM. I am Trishb. I have been following this group for quite a while now because I knew my reverse T3 was high. I don't even need to tell you my last labs, because my ratio was horrible on 3 grains of armour. I finally convinced my doc to let me switch to Cytomel. He is very cautious about this and has me on a very low dose cytomel. I just dropped my last dose of armour a week ago, but am only on 25 mcg. cytomel. I am holding my own, really feel no better, but no worse. I got the okay today to raise to 50 mcg. I was just curious how you would recommend dosing that. I never did real well with armour at bedtime, so I think for now I will skip a bedtime dose ... maybe when I'm on a higher dose. I've been so used to just taking my amour with my HC (32.5) mg which is 3 times a day, but it sounds like it works better for some to take cytomel more often. What do you think? I am so grateful for any help here. So glad to see that you are plugging and long and doing better and better. Very encouraging! Thanks!

Guest guest Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 Hi Trish! I take my Cytomel 4-5 times a dayand the more times you bereak it up the easier it is on the adrneals. But you should really trey a bedtime dose. In healthy people T3 peaks around midnight! This is whne it is needed to reapir and detox the body fro the day befreo so it is really important to raise the night time levels as well and if your adrnela support is adequate it shoud not keep oyu up. -- 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...
