Re: Re: Does First Dose Have to be First Thing?

I split thyroid and HC doses. And if you take the thyroid sublingually

you can take it with anything exceopt calcium and iron as it is absorbed

in the mouth rather than the blood stream. HC should be taken abtu every

4 hours for three doses the usually once oyu build up a bit you will

need a bedtime dose as well.

I'm confused.....

OK even when taking it sublingually, SOME is swallowed. I try to eek out

every bit of what that thyroid oill can give me, so I take it

sublingually first then in an hour take other supplements. Estrogen is

nto a problem to take WITH thyroid as far as in the stomach, it binds

thyroid in the BLOOD so no avoiding that yiu simoly have to take enough

thyroid to overcome the effect. Iron and calcium BOTH block absorptin of

thyroid in the digestive tract. Which is why I suggest that even

sublingually waiting a bit before taking iron or calcium just to absorb

the bit that you sdo get in the stomach even during sublingual use.

,

I don't know what Klonopin is but I have taken Lunesta (not that different

from Ambien in effect). I just got off Ambien because of the same thing.

It was making me feel bad!!! I had to take it to even go to sleep and would

wake up in 2 to 3 hours. Also, like you said, even if I was fatigued the

next day, I could not go to sleep. The first night off Ambien was NOT fun,

virtually no sleep (had to stress dose the next morning to make it through

the day). The next night I actually crashed when I hit the bed and even

though I woke a couple of times, I was able to follow Barb's advice (I

believe) and take salty water and Vit C and get back to sleep. Actually

slept in later than usual. So-o good to not be on Ambien!!!!!
