Withdrawal symptoms of cytomel

I went out of the country with out my prescription for cytomel.  As a result, I did not take it for 5 days.  I started back on it today, but have had cold chills (alleviated by aspirin) for the last 3 days.  I have no other symptoms such as headache, sore throat, nausea.  Could the cold chills be a symptom of withdrawal from cytomel?

What is the daily dose of Cytomel?  It may be that since the half life of Cytomel is less than a day, you may already be feeling the effects.  I assume you started back on the same dose, right?  If so, you should get the effect in a few days.
