RT3 clearing?

[Guest guest]

Hi there, I've been on the Natural Thyroid Adrenal Support group since late 07

and joined here recently at 's suggestion after I crashed again last

fall, and didn't start to get better until January. I stopped Armour on 4/22 and

was on 75mcg Cytomel at the time as well as L-tryosine and Thyromine. After

more labs, Val suggested I stop the last two, and continue with Cytomel/T3 and

chart temps, BP, Pulse, etc. I'm up to 125mcg cytomel. My BP has always been

low, but two weeks ago, it was in the 120's/80's with a pulse of 95-126. Now

that I'm up to 125 Cytomel, my temps are within .02 and averaging 98.1 over the

past week. I'm on 40-50mg HC. BP this week is more normal 106/72, pulse 88. Over

the last three days, I've felt worse each day, attributed it to travelling Fri

and Sat. However, yesterday, I could hardly hold my head up, especially in the

afternoon, and this morning I slept thru alarm, missed 9am meeting, and hurt all

over, especially my neck. I've had a headache for 3 days that isn't going away.

I'm not 'sick'. No cold, virus symptoms, etc. Just suddenly feeling hypo and

getting fatter by the day. Does this mean that the RT3 is clearing? I've

always needed a high dose and was on 240 Armour AND 75 cytomel. Seems like I

should add another 12.5 Cytomel and see what happens. Your thoughts? Thanks so

much!
