Guest guest Posted July 24, 2010 Report Share Posted July 24, 2010 Best wishes to you! Sounds like you have everything in your favor now!!! I know I am feeling much better taking this route! I go by how I am feeling with adding or decreasing doses. Donna http://honey-please-do-list.blogspot.com/ > > Wish me luck everyone.

I've had cardiac problems recently and couldn't tolerate T3 because of adrenal fatigue. So now I think I'm ready. > > I ordered mexican cynomel but it isn't here yet. I decided to start with the generic cytomel that I already have. I'm starting with a 20 mcg dose, 5 mcg at a time, 4 times a day with my HC cream. I was wondering if anyone has any thoughts or a similar experience to mine and maybe took the dose raises a little slower? I was thinking about waiting 5-7 days between increases or will that be harder on my body? I just don't want to crash again. That sucks bad.

Guest guest Posted August 14, 2010 Report Share Posted August 14, 2010 It didn't work. I got up to 15 mcg, went into CHF and ended up in ICU for a week. I don't think I can go through anymore. I also have pulmonary hypertension now too. terif04996 TeriF04996@...> wrote: >Wish me luck everyone.

Guest guest Posted August 14, 2010 Report Share Posted August 14, 2010 Did they say what the pulmonary hypertension was from. What is it by the way? What does it mean?Venizia >Wish me luck everyone.

Guest guest Posted August 14, 2010 Report Share Posted August 14, 2010 It is high pressures in the pulmonary arteries. I didn't have it when they did my cath in June. I have to have more tests done. I'm. Very discouraged. Carol nelsonck@...> wrote: >Did they say what the pulmonary hypertension was from. What is it by the way? What does it mean? > >Venizia > > > > > >>Wish me luck everyone.

Guest guest Posted August 14, 2010 Report Share Posted August 14, 2010 oK I have to reply to this post. FIRST ther eis NO way 15mcg T3 can cause CHF (Congestive Heart Failure) It doesnlt just show up in a week or two but you can have symtoims of fluid retenotin for MONTHS before th4e chest cavity gets enough fluid to cause the heart failure. This si a subkect a know a lot abotu as I had it and lived thorugh it and CURED it with T3, Being hy0o and high RT3 can be3 a cause of it. How was this diagnosed? DO NOT TRUST these doctors as they told me (one of the " top " cardiologists from Templpe University) thta I had less thna 2 years ot live and there was nothign anyone could do about it. this was 15 years ago. HMM I think I am sitll breathing. Doctors do not understand thyroid, especially cardiologists. They ar3 not taught about hormones and their interactions wiht the organs., Yes believe it or not this is a fact. High cortils can cause these symptoms,. HYPERTHYROID can cause pulmonary hypertension but ther eis NO WAY possible 15mcg of T3 could cause this, NO WAY. It si simply physically not possible unless oyu are dumping it on top of your opwn hyperthyroidism, which I assume you are not. So I am nto sure what to tell you except research EVERYTHING they tell you. and odo it well and look up EVREY medication they prescribe as they nearly killed me with atemnolol when I was literally dying of high RT3 and Atenolol makes it worse. > > >Wish me luck everyone.

Guest guest Posted August 14, 2010 Report Share Posted August 14, 2010 I really don't know what to think at this point. I was physically well until I started trying to treat the rt3. The cardiologist wants my thyroid treated and was in agreement with what I was doing. Something is not working for me. I haven't had any fluid retention until the past couple weeks. I did the hydrocortisone for a couple weeks prior to starting the t3 again and my temps had been very stable. It sounds so crazy I know. I'm trying to recover and hopefully regroup.
