Guest guest Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 Speaking of false potassium levels after wrongful method of taking the blood (too tight wraparound the arm, there should be none when measuring it!) - Can I low potassium resultstill mean I have TOO MUCH potassium in the cells, or does it just work the other wayaround, like a low result can only mean THAT low result or even Lower than what you see?

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 That's why I am supplementing with D3 now. I take 3-4000 iu in the wintertime. And1-2000 iu in the summertime. I know D3 is very important for the metabolism in general.T. > >I remember back in my mid teens, a doc commented that my calcium was over the top >range.

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 Will the airhunger I have now, constantly, kill me, or will it just make me feel horrible without dying?Just wondering. This is something new. It is very constant. Not with a pressure on the chest,but more like everytime I inhale, I cannot get past 75% lung volume. It feels like... I amgetting desperate and aaaalmost panicking (not yet tho!) - Do I need more T3 into my cellsor what? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 I honestly don't know . I just know that a few years ago I had my parathyroid tested since I was having so many problems. My calcium level wasn't high though. I would ask your doctor and see if s/he wants to redo the tests again. Whatever it is, I hope you get some answers soon so you can get some peace of mind.

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 , I don't know alot about all this stuff, but it just scares me when I read your post on your heart beating so fast. I think I remember reading somewhere about people who thought they had adrenal fatigue who had some weird type of infection in their' body which they eventually found out about. It was like some sort of mutating infection that doctors had to use anti-biotics somehow to chase down the infection. I don't know that much about it, but I remember a few of the people on the messageboard talking about how they thought they had adrenal fatigue and found out the cause later. I don't know if they got tested or what not, and I do remember them even saying they thought adrenal fatigue was a myth, but I thought you might want to look into it because I feel so bad for what your going through.

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 Nick or Val, would it be ok to raise to 20 mcg T3 daily in my condition? I am on 25 mg HC daily, and have been so for the last 4 days. Went down from 27.5 mg. Have seen an improvment with my headpressure/pain. But this can also be from a changing sinus-infection or anything close to that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 , when I take my last 2.5 mg of HC at 9.00-9.30 pm, and my last 5 mcg of T3 atabout 10-11 pm, is it safe to be up til 2-3-4-5 am without taking more HC? Like, will thebody "run out" of cortisol thus putting me in danger or any kind? It's 1:45 am now, and Idon't feel very sleepy. Tired, yes. Very sleepy? No. Guess I could try to go to bed now...
