Yes low T3 is a common cause of depression, but do get the estrogen

started as well as it is another part of depression that is often over

looked.

Thanks, I just feel so hopeless right now, but I will up my Armour.

In the past I haven't been able to so that is why I was a little

reluctant to try again. Between being fat, going bald, I'm at the end

of my rope.

I am getting help for the low estrogen/testosterone. It is just

taking a while with all the blood tests, etc. Hopefully once this is

all in place, the doomsday feeling will lift.

Are your temps stable at all? Does your BP rise on standing? Maybe

you're still not on enough HC, so your thyroid isn't getting to your

cells and that's why you're so depressed. How's your ferritin?

If your temps ARE stable and you want to raise, you might just try

changing the dosing around so that you do 1, 1/2, 1/2, 3/4. Your body

does most of its healing/renewing at night while you sleep and it needs

thyroid to do that, hence the higher dose at night.
