Guest guest Posted March 12, 2005 Report Share Posted March 12, 2005 Cindi I wonder why it is then that I get progessively hotter with the slightest exertion when it would take a person without hypo a lot more exertion to start feeling hot. Any ideas? Will this go away if and when we are at optimal replacement. Lynda (in the UK) Re: Can hypo folks climb mountains?? and I think this is especially true in those of us who are taking full replacement dosages. Our pituitary and hypothalamus is out of the loop then, right? So there's nobody turning up the heat in the house...but us with our Armour. cindi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 12, 2005 Report Share Posted March 12, 2005 - You take such good care of the rest of us, I am glad you did something to save you from feeling so awful. You've been sick for too long. Maybe you need a vacation, here, in our heat wave? .... ~~ (___)o This is a little bowl of chicken broth on a checked napkin, for you, Hon' +++++ (I don't know how to draw on the computer, the steam is going side-ways! LOL!) Well I found out one thing for sure... When hypos get ill, their conversion must drop to nothing. I am severely hypo right now even on the same dosage I have been on for about a year. I woke up this morning to 94 degree temp. The old aches returned with a vengeance and I popped an extra 2 grain Armour, went back to bed then at 7 AM took my regular morning dosage. I feel better already. I know for some of you a 2 grain in one day additional would send you over the roof, but for me being ill for almost 2 weeks, it is probably about right. Now if I can remember to do this NEXT time I get sick... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have read something about this...but can't remember it now...but i think it's basically all related to the " broke thermostat " ...our body does not adjust up and down ...regulating temperature...properly.

Guest guest Posted March 12, 2005 Report Share Posted March 12, 2005 I think that is hypo and Meno! I know with just a touch of Estrogen I am MUCH better and with the amount of Armour I am taking I am sure it is no longer hypo. *Artistic Grooming * Hurricane, WV Old aunts used to come up to me at weddings, poking me in the ribs and cackling, telling me, " You're next.

Guest guest Posted March 12, 2005 Report Share Posted March 12, 2005 Funny, when I was diagnosed with Graves', one of my main complaints was that the hot flashes were driving me crazy even with the Estrogen/progesterone. Last spring I had something happen that the drs called a TIA or mini-stroke, so my doc won't give me estrogen any more. I had a total numbness/weakness on my left side driving home one night - went right to the ER and by the time anybody actually checked me over, I was fine, so they said " TIA " which really means " we don't have a clue " LOL...So, I'm intolerant to cold most of the time, unless I move around much, and then I'm intolerant to heat! :-) Guess I'll have to get climate control and keep it at 73 degrees all the time! :-) Joyce > I think that is hypo and Meno!

I go directly form heat to air conditioning... 68 degrees or nothing!~ That is about the only temp I am comfy in, or 66 by the end of the day when I am tired I need it cooler. *Artistic Grooming * Hurricane, WV Old aunts used to come up to me at weddings, poking me in the ribs and cackling, telling me, " You're next.
