Re: Help! What is going on

>>I've only had 20 mg T3 in the last five days, could that amount pool?

Before that I took 20on 16th Nov and 60mg a day for 2 weeks before that.

Was I right to raise the cortef back to 35 when standing bp dropped for 2

days?<<

to 35mg from what?

Thanks Val

I understand the fog it must be difficult for you and I feel useless.

I still cant understand how t3 pooling could happen when in five days I took

day 1 temp 97

t3 0

cortef 32.5

day 2 temp 96.9 t3 0

cortef 32.5

day 3 temp 97.5 t3 10 cortef 32.5 day 4 temp 98.3 t3 10 cortef 35

day 5 temp 98.3 t3 0

cortef 35

do I stay off the t3 my temps never get to 98's average or do I try adding

some again.

Sorry to be such a nuisance but the pain is so bad at the moment I just want

to get somewhere with this.

Sorry Val

I think I am not explaining my self, I have no symptoms from the t3 just

terrible hypo symptoms. In August I was on 20 mg cortef and 100 mg t3 and was so

well. At the end of August I upped T3 to 125mg cortef still 20 mg and around the

same time had a major stress with a builder. My symptoms got worse and my temps

went haywire temps for 18 to 21 aug were 96.6 94.9 97.0 95.8

I was feeling a lot of pain again.

Dr P told me to lower t3 i did over few days to 60 then told to up cortef and

t3 went up to 160 mg t3 and 25 mg cortef 11 days.

temps stabalised for 3 days then he told me as I still felt terrible hypo

aches etc to come off t3 over 3 days and build hc up to 40 I did over 12 days.

Since then 1st October I have been on maximum of 60 mg t3 a lot of the time no

t3 and various levels of cortef from 40 mg most of october 35 1/2 then 32 1/2

now back up to 35 due to blood pressure dropping on standing.

I also started sea salt 16th nov.

I ve confused myself so much now I don't know what to ask LOL

I am sure i need a lot of t3 so why when I am on none at the moment have my

temps risen?

I am just so unsure what to do and feel the constant upping and lowering of

cortef and t3 can not be goof for me.

Sorry for the length and rambling but any advice would be appreciated.

Caroline

Happy Thanks Giving

When you take T3 and the temps do not go up at all, or worse yet, go down, it

means it is not gettign to the cells and is pooling in the blood. WOth really

weak adrenals some folks have to start wiht 2.5-5mcg T3. EVEN with HC as it si

juts more metabolism than they can tolerate. Yu have a couple choices. Stay on

JUST HC for a month or so to build some adrneal reserves then try T3 slowly or

try ot slow it down and see if you tolerate it better going even slower wiht it,

OK Needing alot of T3 adn being able tyo tolerate it are two differnt

things. It sounds to me liek you crashed your adrneals which sucked up

all yiur cortisol reserves. To UNDO this you need to find a good dose of

HC where you feel nto too bad and hold while you EVER SO SLOWLY build

the T3 up again. I mean in 5mcg increments. 10 if you are lucky. Every

time you are buiolding the T3 back up I think you have gone too much too

fast and it demolishes your cortisol reserves again. hen they are lwo,

it doesn;lt take much. I know it is hard ot go that slwo wwhen you feel

so bad but there isnt; much choice as your body will olny tolerate tiny

increases. Try mocing the T3 up MUCH slower btu say every 3 days do a

TINY increase.
