Guest guest Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 When one first starts on NTH meds you need to start low say 30 to 60 mgs. Then take your temps avg. to tell when your fall hypo again then go up 15 to 30 mgs. This happens about every 2 weeks do this until your on 90 mgs then you need to hold this dose for 6 to 8 weeks it takes this long to show up on labs. If your Free's are still low and you don't feel better go up 15 to 30 mgs and wait 6 to 8 weeks again. It's not an over night thing to get leveled off it takes time a long time. Read this link on how to do this and print out the chart to chart your temps avg. http://www.drrind.com/therapies/metabolic-temperature-graph Co-Moderator Phil > From: Rouse <michael.hugh.rouse@...> > Subject: can hypothyroid cause a reduction in pain sensation? > > Date: Tuesday, April 5, 2011, 10:30 AM > Hey Group, > > Can hypothyroidism cause someone to not feel pain as much > as they used to? > I ask because I switched over to NTH from T3 and was told > that it would take > a few weeks for things to start converting and that I would > feel hypo in the > meantime.

Guest guest Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 Okay, thanks Phil. I guess that was one of the nice things about T3 is that results were very quick. Thanks again.

Guest guest Posted April 6, 2011 Report Share Posted April 6, 2011 The only thing I've ever read was that undermethylation/high histamine tends to increase pain sensitivity. Google it. -Nigel On 5 April 2011 09:30, Rouse <michael.hugh.rouse@...> wrote: > > > Hey Group, > > Can hypothyroidism cause someone to not feel pain as much as they used to? > I ask because I switched over to NTH from T3 and was told that it would > take > a few weeks for things to start converting and that I would feel hypo in > the > meantime.
