Guest guest Posted December 16, 2002 Report Share Posted December 16, 2002 Hi , Thanks for your patience. I've been so far behind. Don't know if anyone mentioned to you that you can break the Cytomel in half and take it 2, 3 or 4 times daily, not to exceed 50 mcg. This may help your headaches by taking lesser doses each time. How is your calcium level now? Do you have any symptoms of low calcium? Let us know what you find out after your doctor appt on Thurs. You mentioned depression. You may wish to ask your doctor to check your TSH when you see him Thurs. Some people have a rapidly rising TSH and you may be clooser to being ready for RAI than your doctor suspects.
