Re: Need levoxyl/cytomel help again

[Guest guest]

Dee, I think it takes a bit for the body to adjust. Not because of the

T3, which I think gets absorbed by the system quite quickly, but

because of the boost of energy that starts to travel around. I too have

some troubled nights, especially compaired to the ones I had before

when I could collapse on the bed and sleep nine hours straight. But

that same hypnotic tireness followed me during the day, so it wasn't

pleasant at all....why don't you take a mild relaxant before sleeping?

Some herbs or some melatonine that, from what I've heard, helps you

restore your sleeping pattern?

Hope it helps...let me know how it goes

Ciao
