Ok, now what???

[Guest guest]

Ok, I tried to lower my HC dosage to 27.5 from 30 mg. and am having

serious problems lowering by 2.5 mg. The reason I am lowering is bc

I seemed to have felt a little better on 27.5 than 30mg. I have been

also having serious problems with raises, still. I am at .025 T4 and

2.75 grains of Armour at this point. I lowered by 2.5 3 days ago and

the next day felt very, very tired and spent. My head also was

foggy. (lowered my second dose from 7.5 to 5mg. ) Anyways, on the

second day it was worse and to top it off, had some stress with very

icy roads driving my mom from a dr. appt. By the time I got home, I

was sweating horribly and shaking so did a stress dose of 2.5.

Didn't help so had to stress dose by 5 more. Had to go to work and

was still having problems with sweating and weak legs etc.....so, thu-

out the day I ended up stress dosing to stop the sweating and

skakes. I also was having serious heart pounding and fast heart

beats. Had to take another stress dose to stop the heart

problems......Can you tell me what might have caused the heart to do

this? I am also wondering why I still have such problems raising my

armour at this point if the HC is supposed to help with that? I

never had issue until I got past 3 grains in the past. (10 months

previous to HC) I have had issues raising since starting on the HC,

(after lowering my Armour from 2.5 grains to only 1/2 gr. at the

beginning of HC ). I also have a faster pulse and higher blood

pressure than before HC. (could be from hypo but, am unsure at this

point) Was wondering if maybe I was on too high a dose of HC but,

since I still cannot raise my armour without big problems......maybe

it is the opposite? I just don't know at this point anymroe. Also,

my joint aches and Fibro. pain are back with a vengeance. Is that

also a clue that I am not on enough HC still? I know I am still hypo

but, with the problems raising it is very difficult to get my ARmour

up there to feel better in that regard......Anyone who is a HC

expert, please advise???? (any and all opinions are WELCOME!)

THANKS!``

p.s. how do I lower my HC back to 27.5 without causing such bad

affects????
