Guest guest Posted May 8, 2010 Report Share Posted May 8, 2010 Well..Yesterday was my first day going completely off T4. It took a leap of faith, and was stemmed from frustration. it was an ok day, but tooday i feel more tired. A little bit of background, I have been a runner and swimmer, untill i got lyme disease. My first healing with lyme, i stopped running and would walk with my mom . and i practiced gentle yoga. If eel like in the end, alot of healing happened with this, i am a kinesthetic person and the running wasnt appropriate a nd i needed an alternative. Theni got beter have been able to swim..but i have gotten sick again this past year and developed the RT3 problem...which i think holds the key to alot. anyway, i am suppporting my adrenals with herbs. wheni go swimming i am usually ok, but wheni take a shower and eat i feel like i am seeing stars....i get tired and then kind of restless..and just out of it. i have tried aminos, elyes, etc...nothing has really helped this. it did get somewhat better when i decreased armour and t4 so that tells me the extra thyroid hormone was really stressing my system. I want to ask Val or Nick if i might be a candidate for HC. could my adrneals be why i feel like this after swiming, even thought i am going so light and gentle? i have always felt against the HC , but then i read the article on the thyroid/adrenal site and wow..it made so much sense! how long do people need ot be on it? do peopel gain weight? i am still trying to get the thyroid balanced but i could use a scarecrow to point me in the right direction....thank you so much for all your time and all you do Val and Nick.
