[BULK] Re: Problems rising T3 / How much HC can one take? BUMP

September 1, 2010

latest thyroid labs at the end of July (taken 11 hours after last T3 dose, on

62.5 cynomel). I was also taking 30 HC:

TSH: 0.1

free T4: 0.25 ng/dl (0.71-1.90)

free T3: 5.01 pmol/l (2.63-5.70)

I also had high pulse with the above labs. High pulse improved eventually, I

don't know why, but the things I did were to increase HC to 37.5 and to take 400

Magnesium.

Now I went up to 75 Cynomel and pulse has gone up again (I still don't have

labs).

Thanks,

like to rise to see if I could feel better. I have had an awful month. I decided

to go of the little bit of antidepressant I was taking (10 mg Anafranil) and I

had a horrible month with panic attacks, insomnia, crying spells.

heart rate, about 80, but during the day it gets above 100). Also I keep loosing

weight being already too thin. The fast heart rate happened to me before (when I

went up to 62.5 T3) and it eventually improved (I don't know exactly why but the

two things I did were to increase HC and to take 400 magnesium).

> >>> I have posted a lot here, but everything (iron, aldosterone, electrolites)

seems to be O.K. according to this group. Only HC maybe wrong (although all the

test I did before supplementing came out right), but I am supplementing 37.5 and

still having problems rising T3. Could/Should I increase HC? what about

increasing the magnesium dose?
