what to expect - weeks 6-12

[Guest guest]

I All,

I was wondering what to expect during week 6-12 on T3 only. My assumption is

that as T4 decays – and RT3 is still present until that magical 12th week – how

does the body function? Will I become more tired and need to sleep longer while

waiting for the clearance? I'm just wondering what to expect and how to plan.

My doctor has me on slow release T3 at 40mcg – so I do not have to option to

increase as the weeks continue. I felt good the first three weeks we were

ramping up - but now holding for these last two+ weeks my hypo symptoms are

coming back. I did sleep for 9 hours the last two nights without having to get

up for potty time. I generally get about 6 (albeit broken) hours of sleep a

night. Any information that you can give me is greatly appreciated.

Happy Halloween!
