>>So how fast do you think I can raise? Since my adrenals are still pretty

fragile even though my stemps are quite steady, I know I have to be very

careful.<<

It seem s to me your whoel problem has been raising too fast! I would not raise

more than 15MG per week. And I would LOWER that HC. That will cause you more

problems than it is worth so take a week or two off thyroid raises to get the HC

back to a reasonable level. Taking too much HC just to be able to raiuse faster

is NOT a good solution and will come back to bite you.

>>Okay, Val, I'm getting it. So, add 15 mg of armour every week when

dose/adrenals are stable. Does this mean when I get my dose back down to

my previous 27.5-30?<<

Yes

>>What do you suggest for tapering? For the past week or so, I've been

dosing between 37.5-40. Today I dosed 15-12.5-7.5-5. I had good energy

all morning for the first time in a week but was quite tired all

afternoon, which means I need to cut my morning doses, right? How do you

suggest I do this? And for how long?<<

Yes you would cut the AM dosing first to 12.5 - 10 - 7.5 - 5

For abotu 5 days check temps and see if they are stable then.

10 - 10 - 7.5 - 5

>>Add any more to what I'm currently taking?, which is 30 mg armour, having

started 15 mg last week and added 15 mg this week. Is this dose okay

until I get back down to stable hc dose? Or do you mean cut the armour

out all together? Temps today continue to be stable, and I feel tons

better than I have in weeks on lower hc dose.<<

I mean to not add MOREin while lowering HC. It will make lowering VERY painful!

JUst hold where you are with thyroid iuntil the HC dose is lower and temps

stabilize.
