Guest guest Posted August 25, 2010 Report Share Posted August 25, 2010 Val wrote me personally, well maybe through the group and I have been following instructions! I have been on T3 only since June 1st. I was also on Metoprolo a beta blocker. I am not on that any more, a small dose of something else. I used to have low iron and I took iron for a year, and it came up. I have had sleeping problems for most of my life, but the last 5 - 10 years have been dreadful. My ambition has been next to nothing. I was also advised to take an adaptogen. So I got some holy basil. I believe my sleep rhythm has been messed up and backwards for the last 5 years. But amazingly it has gotten so much better! Val and Nick and others give the most marvelous advice. My doctor is cooperative but doesn't know what you two know! I have also followed the advise to watch carbs. I gave my kids, all my flour tortillas, and frozen burritos, and all my boxed hamburger mixes, and all my soups with noodles in them. It is making a huge difference to be watching those carbs! I had been careful about caffeine and sugars but not careful about carbs. About 10 days ago, I started sleeping at night. I have had to take 2 Benydryl and an RX sleeping pill and now I am down to one Benydryl, generally. I have anxiety and it doesn't take must to cause insomnia. But today I am having energy and ambition again. I am doing some of those things I have neglected due to no energy or ambition! It is just fabulous! I just can't say enough wonderful things about this group.
