Have you done your average temps to see what is what according to Dr Rind? Mo NOVA Counselling & Healing Services Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 24, 2006 Report Share Posted August 24, 2006 , do you take Armour the same time as HC? Try taking the HC about a half hour after your small doses of Armour. Or even stress dose for three days after a dose increase. -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV My Ebay Jewelry Store http://stores.ebay.com/valeriescrystalcreations http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 24, 2006 Report Share Posted August 24, 2006 >>I only took one grain today (instead of 2)- I felt fluey and shaky and tachycardic afterwards again. Then I didn't take any more the rest of the day and I feel better!<< This is VERY typical of adrenal fatigue. Armour IS the culprit when your body has not cortisol to handle it. -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV My Ebay Jewelry Store http://stores.ebay.com/valeriescrystalcreations http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like you are stable. Also low? That says you need more Armour I think. Val??? Oh and about Dr Hertoghe. Yes I am feeling very privaledged! He has waiting lists several months long (3-4) and it can't come soon enough for me! A friend of mine started to see him recently and he has really helped her no end. And she has seen top docs here in England etc. etc. Turns out she was - and I may well have this wrong here - she was producing antibodies to the Armour - or something like that so he took her off and put her on T3 and she is going in leaps and bounds. So I know it is miserable for you in the meantime but you do have good care to look forward to. I KNOW that's no real consolation because when you are feeling so low, minutes can feel like weeks but in the meantime we are all here to support you through the next little while and before you know it, it will be Christmas and you will ne a new woman!

No fluey feelings, tachcardia and irritablility after the Armour! I have managed to take 3/4 of the 2 grain dose. Val Do tell all, why is this?

It takes Armour a couple hours for it's T3 to start peaking in your blood, HC works MUCH faster, timing to get them to work together is key. So Val, I take my first Armour and h.c approx 8 am and then my next h.c dose is due approx noon BUT I tend to take my second Armour dose 6 hours after the first i.e. 2pm. How would I work this out?

Guest guest Posted August 25, 2006 Report Share Posted August 25, 2006 Val - I know I've asked you this before, but you mind giving us an example of your dosing schedule when you were on cortisol and thyroid meds - ie armour at 7am, HC at 8am, along with all your vitamins etc? It's tricky to plan out when to take calcium, vitamin c, along with HC and armour and I'd love to see what you scheduled. I started the cortisol today, and I had planned on taking my first dose at 7am, then thyroid meds an hour later. Should I switch them??

I bought a sport watch with 4 alarms to remind me to take it every 4 hours. I feel so much more leveled out throughout the day. Lynn I am useless with setting these things. Can you just set it once in the morning to go off every four hours regarding of what time you rise or do you have to set it differently each day if you rise at different times as I do? Thanks. Mo ps along with this I also need a secretary, a chaffeur, a cook, cleaner, accountant...... hmmm what else................
