High cortisol does not cause A-fib, but high thyroid can. Are you certain it was A-fib? Palpitations can feel VERY scary and A-fib doen;t usually go away.-- 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/------------------------------------

I felt it was on topic..I asked similar questions several times and didnt get an answer, so thought mine would just be part of this conversation, as this one thread seems to be the majority of all posts

You think it will be 6 months on 100 mg iron before my Ferritin is adequate? Hmmm.That's a long time. I will try to increase it more and more! To go directly to 200 mg is not good, is it?I will check my Ferritin again soon with a 5 day break of supplementing with iron forehand.I am SO incredibly sleepy and weak (feel drunk) this evening. From about 8 pm, it started.What can this mean? Can it mean that I simply need more T3.. More HC? Do I have TOO MUCH HC?I am sooooo woozy..

Well come back in 6 months and we can then talk abotu raising your T3

but DO get labs cause many here on 75-200mg a day their ferritin did nto

move. I did not pick that 150-200mg daily number out of my hat. It si

what works.

It is not dangerous to go up on iron that fast but it can cause some

stomach and bowel problems so it is best to raise it in 50mg increments.

Ok, thanks!Well, as for my extreme drowsiness... Can it be that I need mroe T3? 10 mcg daily now.Haven't felt very much pressure the last couple of days. Nothing today.As for HC - Now that I am on 27.5 mg HC daily, does that mean my ACTH gets shutdown after the last dose of 2.5 mg at 9 pm? I have been extremely tired and sleepy since8 pm, and when I took that 2.,5 mg HC dose, nothing happened.I am trying to watch "Home Alone" but I am sooooooo tired! :(Subject: Re: Re: Help - Heart just started beating VERY slowly and IRREGULARLYTo:

Well I'm an idiot - I just found out I've been taking 2.5 mg of HC less in the past two days.No wonder I've felt more sleepy EXACTLY in these two days! Guess my body gets usedto each dose I go up, but can't go down easily, no matter how high I get.I will now take the 2.5 mg of HC I missed earlier today, at 30 minutes past midnight.T.

My latest labs from the 21st of December 2009, whater they mean:(After being 9 days on 10 mcg T3-only)Resultes: Ranges:FT3 5.7 (3.5 - 7.0 pmol/L)FT4 13.8 (9.0 - 21.0 pmol/L)TSH 1.09 (0.2 - 4.5 mE/L)

[Guest guest]

FT3 5.7 (3.5 - 7.0 pmol/L)

FT4 13.8 (9.0 - 21.0 pmol/L)

TSH 1.09 (0.2 - 4.5 mE/L)

Your T4 is falling as it shoudl be on T3 onyl meds, and your FT3 is coming up

but is not horribly low. Your TSH is a bit too high meaningyou need ot raise

the T3 a bit.

Yeah. But shouldn't I check my Ferritin before I raise T3? With the 5-day break first.To be sure everything will be ok?

FT3 5.7 (3.5 - 7.0 pmol/L)

FT4 13.8 (9.0 - 21.0 pmol/L)

TSH 1.09 (0.2 - 4.5 mE/L)

[Guest guest]

Yes it would be ebst to check but the fact your TSH is up a bit says

your body can tolerate a LITTLE more T3.

And I think I might feel like I need more T3 too. I just took a 15 minute shower,and I am completely DRAINED with energy. I can barely move. My head feels like arock, and my whole body is just.... HEAVY. Is this lack of HC/too much HC, ortoo little T3? I will raise it to 15 mcg today.It's only been 2 hours since I took my first 5 mcg of T3 and I already feel I need more.I can be wrong though. I have no idea why I feel like this. It's just scary.Subject: Re: Re: Help - Heart just started beating VERY slowly and IRREGULARLYTo: RT3_T3 Date:

I haven't taken my 25 mg "morning" iron today. If I take it now, I won't be able to take T3 for 4 hours, right? What happens if I take my T3 one hour after I take iron?
