Guest guest Posted December 21, 2007 Report Share Posted December 21, 2007 I would suspect oyu may have high RT3. If oyu could get labs for that that would be my recommendation. As it seems the higher doses of Armou are not getting ot the cells and your adrnela function while off at certain times is not that bad. -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ http://www.seewell4less.com/Valspage.htm Medical Alert Bracelets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 21, 2007 Report Share Posted December 21, 2007 Hi. I asked you on your other forum about the RT3 and you said it looked ok.

But replace the Armoruslowly wiht 25mcg T3 per grain of Armour a week and stop if you have anxiety symptoms. -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ http://www.seewell4less.com/Valspage.htm Medical Alert Bracelets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
