I think you answered your own question. Either you are not oin enough thyroid or

your cortisol is too low to get it to the cells. The temp graph will tell you

which it is.

So are you saying that a little over 1 week is long enough to know if

3 grains is working? And that there isn't any transition for the body

in switching from armour to thyroid-S?? I guess I gave myself an

adrenal problem by taking HC as this gain was never an issue before

especially this quickly! In your opinion, should I go to 3 1/4 grains

or 3 1/2 grains? Would that be potentially overshooting my sweet

spot?

You DO need to hold thyroid doses for 4-6 weeks to full y know how they

are workign, I would suggest doing the temp graphing to rule OUT

cortisol problems.

BTW bumping thyroid doses up and down and up agin is a MAJOR stress on

the adrenals also you have just lowered cortiosl from a much higher dose

and sometimes adrenals take LONGER to recover from that. So the way you

have done the meds is helping to keep your adrneals from functioning

properly.

I lowered my HC dose 2.5 ever 7-10 days to from 30mg to arrive at

7.5mg where I am today. By doing that I am keeping my adrenals from

functioning properly?! I have not bumped the thyroid up or down since

I went to 3 grains over 1 week ago.

Yes, I did lower the armour at the time because I thought I didn't

NEED 3 1/2 grains, which is what I was taking. When the weight crept

on all of a sudden and I asked the question on this board about it, I

discovered that I had gone hypo and went back up to 3 grains.

I thought you were suggesting that I dropped HC from 30mg to 7.5mg at

once.

Just that bobble in thyroid meds can be enough to cause MAJOR adrenal stress.

Adrenals are tender for months after healing. Do the tempo graoh to determine if

oyu ned to go back up on HC just a tad tocover this. If tempos are stable then

you just need ot wait for the thyroid to kick in good again.
