Val - Question about sudden drops in energy levels?

[Guest guest]

Val I cleared several weeks ago and was able to get my issues with heart pounding & high BP/pulse under control after dropping doses lower and working back up. I think I'm edging pretty close to a stable dose to T3 and HC. Last 7 days my temps are stable and averaging 98.3 - 98.5 though I do notice after my 3rd or 4th dose my temp usually gets up to 99.2 but goes down as evening wears on. Not sure if that's normal or if I can attribute that to the hot flashes I've been having. Estrogen dominant/taking progesterone.The main reason I'm writing is because I would appreciate some help getting my meds figured out so my energy levels stay good throughout the day. I am now starting to experience a dip of energy and get really sleepy after taking my 2nd & 4th doses. I shake off the sleepiness and force myself to do something but clearly these dips shouldn't be happening. Currently I'm taking T3 18.75, 12, 18.75, 12 at 9, noon, 3 & 6. My HC dose is 5, 7.5, 5, 2.5 taken same time. I'm not sure how to settle this issue. I'd also LOVE to wean off another 2.5 mg. HC but not sure if that's causing the energy dips or the T3.

I would drop the second HC dose to 5mg. You have an unnatural rhythm

there and it si bound ot cause issues. Yes it si normal for late

afternoon to early evening for temps to peak around 99 and then drop

later towards bedtime as your body prepares for sleep.
