I thought that stopping T3 only suddenly can result in a myxedema coma.

>What I wanted to know is if it's worth going off the Cytomel for ten days to get my numbers back into whatever range they are looking for.It would take 3 months to get you fully hypo and stable. you wouldhave to taper off meds and then let T4 levels from your own thyroidstabilize.>I don't give a hoot about numbers myself, I just know I feel good.Good!>The site that said the tests are worthless while on any thyroid meds also said that it doesn't affect most people to go off it for that long. But I feel bad when I forget my dose just once.You could get away with that if you were on T4 only but not on T3,after 3 days you would have the T3 levels from the supplementationnear zero and then spend a long time very hypo before TSH stimulatedyour own thyroid to produce more T4 (if it could)Never do things suddenly to Natural or

T3, you could crash badly.Nick
