Dorothy the shaking hands is a hyper sign. It si possible some RT3 has

cleared adn you are going hyper. If you passed into hyper while the Rt3

was sitll in lpace, your temps may not go up as the adrenal stress will

keep them loking low while other things get pummelled form the high T3.

Iwould lower the dose and unless temps DROP keep lowering til you feel

better. high T3 can raise glucose as well.

By the time I take my next dose of T3, I am feeling air hunger. It

always goes away in about 20 min. I was thinking of doing 12.5 instead

of 25 at a time. Maybe I could decr that way , stretching out the time

between.

Maybe I need more cort. Eating makes me feel the air hunger even if I

take my dose before eating. Seems like I should have enough HC at 40 mg.

Am I right to think my Base HR should not go higher than about 76?
