Guest guest Posted December 2, 2010 Report Share Posted December 2, 2010 If you are not converting the prohormone T4 into the active thyroid hormone T3, you will be getting symptoms of toxicity. Have you considered stopping the levothyroxine or adding in some T3. I would telephone Dr P as he would not want you to continue to suffer this way, and it might be something you could deal with quickly. Give him a call. It is his 'phone' day today. If his line is engaged, then wait until the operator tells you that you can use ringback and then press 5. You will then be told your ringback has been accepted. Put down your phone and when his phone is free, your call should then get through and your phone will ring. Wait until Dr P picks up the phone. Let us know what he says. Luv - Sheila I am on week 4 of the diary sheets for Dr P - taking all the vits and now on 3 NT and 4 NAX a day aswell as the 75mcg Levo I was already on. This week I have felt worse than ever - stiff, bloated and tired and feeling either low or irritable - I think mainly because I am feeling like an uphill struggle with even the little things. Another skirt has become too tight and so I am now rotating the only two skirts for work and winter; guess I will have to go and buy a bigger size to keep me going. I hate who I see when I look at myself in a mirror. My face is back to hang dog droopy and my eyes are looking puffy again. I don't want to bother Dr P yet but has this happened to others? I am wondering whether I do need to look at adding some T3 or trying NDT, I will be mentioning this to when I send the first lot of diary sheets back in 2 weeks.??? Thanks Fed up Stacey!

Guest guest Posted December 2, 2010 Report Share Posted December 2, 2010 Hi ther, Thanks for the reply unfortunately I was caught up in some emergency work most of the day so thi is the first opportunity to look at the response and now it is too late to call Dr P so I will have to wait til next week now. I had a good chat with a colleague today which helped - she told me to stop beating myself up over not feeling or " thinking " that I look bad. I do need something else though as I feel like I've ground to a halt again. Do you know if Dr P takes calls on Fridays? I can try the number anyway. I am going to get through Xmas and then I am going to start the Paleo diet which may help with the weight a bit and hopefully if I can get some T3 or NDT. So the New Year will give me a momentum to get better as well. Thanks thanks thanks Sheila for your words. x Stacey --- In thyroid treatment , " Sheila " <sheila@...> wrosomething you > cou Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 3, 2010 Report Share Posted December 3, 2010 Once I have completed our next Newsletter (still trying to get it out for Christmas) you may have need to think about another diet for your weight loss as I have written about this and I think many of our members will want to be trying it. All the details will be in there. I hope everybody is going to get better in 2011, the sooner the better and I think this diet is going to cause quite a stir - and help people regain normal health too. Since I used it, I have dropped my Erfa Thyroid from 3 grains to 2 grains. I need no more adrenal supplements. I used to take a load of supplements before which I now have no need of. I feel wonderful. But, be patient. I can promise it is worth waiting for. Now, aren't I a tease?
