Hi medhelp! I hope i can keep this simple, I'm taking 5mcg of cytomel twice a day and have been for about a week due to a blood test showing my tsh at 7.17 and t4 at 1.17 (mid range) unfortunately t3 wasn't tested this time. and it's kind of making my heart palpitate more often (something I'm used to at this point but the t3 definitely makes this more noticeable and I'd sooner break both my legs then go through adrenal fatigue again -_-)
it's hard to say symptom wise because I'm primarily being treated for lyme and candida so symptoms don't really mean anything anymore in a sense, any limb and any function is fair game to be either hurting,burning,tingling, tiring. heart wrenching, sleep depriving, stress inducing, etc.
So is it worth taking the cytomel because of the raised tsh, even with the possibility that my t3 is at optimal levels (maybe answering my own question here?)
I asked my doctor but.............................................................. <- that's pretty much how our visits go
thanks!
