Guest guest Posted December 10, 2009 Report Share Posted December 10, 2009 Just wanted to say that I've been in the hospital over the night. They put me in here. But surprise surprise, they don't believe in " Type 2 Hypothyroidsm " , nor do they believe in " Adrenal Fatigue " , Hydrocortison treatment, or any rT3-issues. I have no clue what to do... I am afraid my heart isn't getting enough T3! I fear my whole body is shutting down... One question though: I didn't sleep ONE minute thru this night here. Too many noises of sick patients everywhere, and just a horrible bed. Anyway: I took my 7.5 mg HC at 1 pm, " the usual time " , even if I got no sleep this night. Was that the right decision of me? Is it dangerous to not sleep when you have Adrenal Fatigue? I feel SO weird and weak and just.. Crap! They took some labs here. Sodium was at 138. I don't remember the ref, but it's about at the lowest range. Calcium was too high 2 days ago. Wonder if that has anything to to with it. Calcium at 2.58. I take 4000 iu D3 every day. Too much? Well gotta run. T. > > The slow irregular heart beat is hypo and the thyroid trying ot get into > the cells wiht the iron. Low iron is known to cause these issues as it= > hypothyroid.

Guest guest Posted December 10, 2009 Report Share Posted December 10, 2009 Your sodium is very low and can well account fo rthe irregular heartbeat. Calcium too high also can cause this btu I am unsure whether the vitamin D has much to do wiht this but you need ot be tested for hyperparathyroidism. -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/RT3_T3/ http://groups.yahoo.com/group/HypoPets/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would like to know what kind of thermometer you're all using, as well as when and how often to measure it. I've been measing my temperature with a digital thermometer, usually for 1 minute, orally. It says on the box that the temp will be done after 25 seconds, but I've experienced that it takes a little longer than that. If I have one temp after 1 minute though, it gets higher if I wait another 3-4-5 minutes. So, how can I possibly know when to stop measuring? I've been doing basal oral morningtemps. They've been a little low. 35.9 C (96.6 F), 36.0 C (96.8 F), but mostly 36.4 C (97.6 F). I know that you had to add 0.3 C when measuring in the mouth. The only place that shows the REAL REAL temp is up the behind. But www.drrind.com says you have to measure metabolic temps in the mouth, cause it's asier! So 37.0 (98.6 F) is what we're all aiming for throughout the day. I am pretty much always getting that temp when I measure my 3 times a day. 3 hours after I wake up, then after 3 hours and another 3 hours after that. The average is pretty much 37.0 (98.6). You have to rest for 20 minutes and not eat or drink or use your mouth before measuring. Which can be challenging at times. T. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2009 Report Share Posted December 12, 2009 My sodium was low in the evening because I hadn't eaten or had anything to drink for 6+ hours at the ER. Probably. So now I'm sipping down on a 1 1/2 liter bottle (big bottle) with water and 2 teaspoons of sea salt. It's better to get too much than too little sea salt, yeah? I am going down to 2000 iu of D3 daily until I'm tested for hyperparathyroidism. My PTH was very low earlier this year, strange, cause it was normal later.

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2009 Report Share Posted December 12, 2009 Sodium was 138 that night, 142 the day before. How come it changes so fast? Same with calcium. Above the range the first day, at 2.58, (2.51 is the top range) and below the top range the next da, at 2.45. Why is this happening so fast? Should it? > > Your sodium is very low and can well account fo rthe irregular > heartbeat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2009 Report Share Posted December 12, 2009 This is the right place to ask. My heart is now beating and SKIPPING beats REAL hard. Not ALL the time but ALL too often. Several times every minute. Took more HC today than ever before 27.5 mg. Took 20 mg daily up til 3 dags ago... Drank 2 tea spoons of sea salt in water today. What can cause this scary symptom of skipping beats so often? Is it dangerous? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2009 Report Share Posted December 12, 2009 The other da before going to the hospital it really stopped beating normally for 30 seconds. Just WEAKLY and super-irregularly. Right NOW it's beating normally, but I can feel my heart much better than normally, like it beats maybe a bit stronger, BUT I also feel it SKIPPING many beats. Ofte 2-3 at the same time. It's like... do-dah...do-dah...do-dah...DooOoOOooobbrrrRRrrr...................DAHH!!!!

Guest guest Posted December 13, 2009 Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 >What can cause this scary symptom of skipping beats so often? Is it >dangerous? I have had this from Hypo among other things. If it happens just after taking T3 then it's " more T3 than ferritin/cortisol can cope with " If it happens several hours after taking T3/Erfa then it's hypo.

Guest guest Posted December 13, 2009 Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 Guess it's Hypo then. Hypo from rT3-dominance, probably. Well as you know I'm on only 1 grain of ERFA Thyroid now. Been taking it for 23 days, where the first 11 days was just 1/2 grain. I am not sure, but I think I might feel worse after taking the first 1/2 grain every day, then worse again when I take my second 1/2 grian. Might be my imagination, though. Do you think I can start taking T3-only when my Ferritin is at 53 (false high probably, as I didn't wait 5 days before the test, and took my Iron every day.) And how many days will it take before a " new " dose of HC, mine now being 22.5 is " activated " in the system? > > >What can cause this scary symptom of skipping beats so often?

Guest guest Posted December 13, 2009 Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 Nick, If I feel worse on T3-only, for some reason, just cutting ERFA Thyroid in 1 day, going onto 10 mcg T3 daily from that day.... Can I switch back to ERFA Thyroid whenever I feel like it? The first thing I learned about metabolism, is that it's SLOW... And you must do all changes in medication very slowly! I didn't do anyting slowly when I removed 50 mcg T4 in one day 6 days ago. I didn't replace those 50 mcg's with anything. It felt strange doing such a thing! It's 11 am and I got up 2 hours ago at 9. I haven't taken any Thyroid meds yet. Trying to make up my mind. ERFA Thyroid still, or T3-only. I am bickering towards T3-only. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
