Guest guest Posted December 23, 2009 Report Share Posted December 23, 2009 just gave me the lowdown on cortisol and showers.Actually, I never liked really hot showers. I just like it warm. I guess I will have to watch the temperature next time I shower. But I want to become warm in the shower though - When Iam freezing a bit...Subject: Re: Re: Help - Heart just started beating VERY slowly and IRREGULARLYTo: RT3_T3 Date: Wednesday, December 23, 2009, 3:49 PM Are you taking a really hot shower? I know sometimes if I do, I feel wiped out afterwards. I think it affects my blood pressure. Or perhaps the higher temps are harder on the adrenals?!?! Re: Re: Help - Heart just started beating VERY slowly and IRREGULARLY Temp: 37.2 C (99.0 F)Pulse: 84Blood pressure Feels a bit low...The question is: What do I try to do now to fix this incredibly heavy/sleepy state?Hope this is not an iron overdose? I read somewhere that you get weak and fast pulse when you get that.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 23, 2009 Report Share Posted December 23, 2009  I saw that she wrote that after I sent my post. I know, I like mine warm, too, but I am wiped out afterwards if I take too hot of a shower. Feel better! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 23, 2009 Report Share Posted December 23, 2009 How can one possibly know whether your need more sea salt, more OR less HC, etc. when you are feeling bad? Is it possible to tell the symptoms apart? Ok, so I know HEAVY and TIRED (plus shaking) means Low Cortisol. But what if a person feels stressed? Can that mean too much HC? Or.. Even too little? Hmmm... Trying to figure it all out here! I am drinking sea salt every morning (1/2 teaspoon) and every now and then if I feel extra bad. Never knowing it it's gonna work or not.

Guest guest Posted December 23, 2009 Report Share Posted December 23, 2009 From 9 pm this evening and on, I've had a terrible headache, unlike anything I had before HC. The only thing I can imagine doing this to me, is HC. Now at 27.5 mg daily. What else can give me this headache? I feel so rotten inside my head, totally infected and just horrible!Any advice what I can do? Lower HC? Take more sea salt?I also increased my T3 to 15 mcg today.Thanks!

Guest guest Posted December 23, 2009 Report Share Posted December 23, 2009 Just ate so we can't trust the temp, but here it goes anyway:Pulse: 72 (normal)Temp: 36.4 C (like I said, I just ate - cold rice milk won't give us any real temps!)This feeling I have now, physically, is just... Unbearable! I feel like my body is aching, butit's mostly my head hurting - Feels different from a normal headache, this is more like a knifeslicing from the sides and into my head. And I'm sleepy and tired and everything is just utterly horrible. I feel rotten. Rotten to the core. I wonder what is causing this. I raised myHC to 27.5 mg yesterday. Maybe I just really can't have much more than 20 mg HC!?I can't remember having pains like this on 17.5 or 20 mg HC daily.Took my T3 dose number 3, at mcg T3 (total 15 today) at 9:50 pm, after I took my final 2.5 mgHC for today... But the headache started before I took HC/T3 this evening. But it got worse after I took T3 and HC.:-(My face also looks worse and worse. Super-puffy. Fat. Just bad. Blackness under my eyes...... >Any advice what I can do? Lower HC? Take more sea salt? > >I also increased my T3 to 15 mcg today. Pulse? Temperature? ??

Guest guest Posted December 23, 2009 Report Share Posted December 23, 2009 I will try it right now. Hope it won't hut me further than this, like if I have too MUCH salt in me... That's what I hate about this condition - Nobody knows if it's too little or too much or ANYTHING! :(My temp, after waiting for a while after eating (to get the right temp!) is pretty normal at36.8 C (98.3 F) - I'm usually at 36.9 or 37.0 (98.6 F) late in the evening though. So I guessI am a little lower now than normal.Subject: Re: Re: Help - Heart just started beating VERY slowly and IRREGULARLYTo: RT3_T3 Date: Wednesday, December 23, 2009, 10:45 PM Have you tried a large glass of sea salted water? -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV http://www.stopthet hyroidmadness. com/ http://health. groups.yahoo. com/group/ NaturalThyroidHo rmonesADRENALS/ 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...

Guest guest Posted December 23, 2009 Report Share Posted December 23, 2009 ,To sit like this with a head that feels like it's about to explode, with a fat belly and a fat face (unnatural for me), and with a weakness in the body, plus an extra weakness in the heart, it's just too much. Nobody knows what's wrong with me, and it's driving me crazy. If I could only feel like I "normally do" I would be ok. But this is something extra on top of everything. It's just too much.And who really knows if I take too little or too much HC... It's impossible to say how much I need! I am thinking I take too much HC right now. I could be wrong, of course.T.
