Guest guest Posted September 30, 2008 Report Share Posted September 30, 2008 Thanks a million. Have another question for you tho. When you stand up to take the BP do you rest your arm on something or should you let it hang at your side? I have done it both ways, along side still lwent down a hair earlier. But what does it mean when my BP goes so high when I stand up? Earlier I tooki my Bp sitting, 146/85 p.65; standing 170/91 p.81; that is a big jump. Is it me or am I doing something wrong. I noticed that since I am stress dosing with the BP_that my Bp is running higher than it was. What does that mean? Thanks in advance for all your input. > Yes the first BP should be taken after sitting still for at least 15 > minutes thewn immediately after standing up. I had a headache last nite and this morning, it is finally gone again, but noticed that my legs are a little weak, but all in all I feel much better. > > -- > Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV > > http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ > http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ > http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/RT3_T3/ > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 28, 2008 Report Share Posted October 28, 2008 The illness must have used some of your cortilsl up. But th highish oulse you need to try taking some sea salt for. or lower T3. -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/RT3_T3/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 28, 2008 Report Share Posted October 28, 2008 Ok will do, will add another sea salt as I was only taking one. I will drop t3 down 12.5 for a few days. Last time it took pulse too low. My pulse was fine till the irregular heartbeat started last nite. It is still going. My Bp is still very low, has been all day. The last one just a few minutes ago is as follows: sitting--110/86 p.93; standing--114/72 p.130. I only stress dosed once today of 10mg HC, should I do more to try to get this heartbeat stopped. My pulse was good before the irregular heartbeat started last nite. > The illness must have used some of your cortilsl up.

Guest guest Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 I would go to the middle on the T3. How much did you reduce it? maybe go back half way between ths dose and the one you were taking. Your BP swining that wildly is not a happy sign... But once off your stress dose ti should settle down again. -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/RT3_T3/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 I reduced it 12.5mcg, so then just add half of that correct?? All lof a sudden I am retaining fluid in feet and hands. I am taking 1/2 tsp sea salt twice a day, eating a banana a day for the potassium (since I had that stomach flu & irregular heartbeat). I think I am drinking enough water. I am in between docs at the moment, but as soon as I get one I will have the aldosterone checked. I ask my old one to but she never did do it, nor the ferritin test. Any suggestions on how to stop the fluid??? > I would go to the middle on the T3. How much did you reduce it? maybe go > back half way between ths dose and the one you were taking.

Guest guest Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 I am betting the fluid retentuion is just from the extra HC dosing during your illness. Even when you need it it can have that unwanted side effect when you have to dose high for an illness. -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/RT3_T3/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 Thanks for the tip, you are probably correct. I am having headaches around my eyes and neckache could that be now I need more T3?? You told me to up 6mcg from where I cut back on T3 because of the high heart rate when I had irregular heartbeat. Now it is low again in the mornings when I wake up, 58pulse. How long do I do the 6mcg raise before I go on up to the 75mcg I was at?? > I am betting the fluid retentuion is just from the extra HC dosing > during your illness.

Guest guest Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 I would hold it for a wek before another raise. -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/RT3_T3/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
