Guest guest Posted March 31, 2008 Report Share Posted March 31, 2008 TK--- first, both thyroid and adrenal function should be tested properly. Adrenal insufficiency should be addressed first to prevent putting more strain on the thyroid. Further testing & observation to check results is needed to find appropriate levels of medication. These are medications [not supplements to use indiscriminately] and they can cause serious problems if used incorrectly. Hopefully you are not using 50mg of T3 or even 50mcg. This would be a very high dose which can cause serious problems. You do not want to use more than 20mg HC spread out properly during the day if possible. I do not know who [Dr.] is advising you but you should stop and evaluate them as the dosages and procedure you are following are a problem. > > Should thyroid and adrenal supplements be at an optimal level before > one beings detoxing? > > I am currently taking t3 50mg (cynomel-Mexican brand for cytomel) and > hydrocortisone 20mg and I am working my way up. > > Tasia > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 2, 2008 Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 TK--- is corect. It can make a huge difference or none depending on the person, toxic level etc etc... I would recommend people become informed on the subject & start the process before chelation especially if they know there is a problem [a lot of us] as it can make a huge difference. But this will depend on the individual circumstances. > > > > TK, > > I understand balancing adrenals and thyroid are important.
