Guest guest Posted March 5, 2007 Report Share Posted March 5, 2007 I take that much magnesium. Its the only thing that keeps my muscles from turning to solid concrete.

Guest guest Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 I think dosing Armour 5 hrs. apart is too long also. I take it 3.5hrs. apart because the T3 in it doesn't last much longer than that and I get a hormone headache if I wait much longer. wrote: For me, I can't take it at night or it takes away what little sleep I AM getting! I take 2.25 grains in the morning, then 2 grains later in the day, if I split into two doses of 1 grain each it works well, and if I take the 2 grains all at one time it works equally well. What doesn't work for me is taking HC or Armour anywhere close to bedtime! Mo, you might be spacing your doses too far apart; maybe 5 hours is too long? C.

Guest guest Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 , Can you tell me when you take your meds - thyroid and adrenal? I only take my thyroid meds twice a day, and am thinking this may be part of my problem. 8am - 2 1/4 grains thyroid-s and 10mg cortisol 11am - 5mg cortisol 2 - 2 1/4 grains thyroid-s 3 - 2.5mg cortisol 10pm - 2.5mg cortisol SAMMIE > For me, I can't take it at night or it takes away what little sleep I AM getting!

I had it in my head that SIX hours was the length of time it took for the T3 to dissipate. Mo www.NOVACounselling.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
