cytomel and food
Can I assume that food and drink don’t interfere with absorption with
cytomel
? Many thanks!

Splitting Cytomel Pills
does anybody have a secret for splitting
cytomel
? The pills just seem to disintegrate when I try to use my pill splitter. I saw reference to someone quartering their
cytomel
and I have no clue how you would manage that!

T4/T3 struggle
I am on 75mcg levo and about 3mcg of
Cytomel
. (I weigh 88kg) I gained most of the weight since I started
Cytomel
. I tried increasing
Cytomel
to 5mcg and I lost weight but I was more anxious, sleepy and my heart felt tense. I tried increasing Levo, but also caused more anxiety and weight gain.

weight gain with low TSH?
I've been on levothyroxine 125mcg and 5mcg
cytomel
. When I started feeling sluggish and gaining weight, I increased my T3 (
cytomel
) to 12.5mcg/day hoping it would make me feel better. It seems to have made things worse. Also, my eyes started bugging out...I have graves eye disease as well.

Synthroid vs Cytomel's effect on TSH Suppression
So here is my question: If I don't want TSH to be overly suppressed between here and there, can I only take 5 mg
Cytomel
per day (instead of 10 mcg
Cytomel
per day) along with the 100 mcg Synthroid in the morning? That is, which has a quicker effect on TSH levels,
Cytomel
or Synthroid? Thanks!

Why are Endocrinologists So Useless - My Rant of Today!
TSH - 0.95 (0.35-5.00) - on some
Cytomel
Free T4 - 15 (11-23) Free T3 - 3.8 (3.4-5.9) Q - What the heck is the problem with my endo - anyone who Googles can see my results are too low. Is this stupid response normal in the endo world?

Generic Cytomel
Picked up a new RX today, which is brand name
cytomel
to test my theory but not without a huge cost increase ! The more I read about generics, the more I just don't trust them. Am I alone here ? Wondering if anyone else has noticed a difference with thyroid meds.

Cytomel sleep starts?
My doctor had me stop the
Cytomel
for one week to see if my symptoms went away. She was not convinced it is related to the medication. The episodes weakened and lessened, but I still had them. I resumed the
Cytomel
at half dose and that first week (back in it) I had almost no episodes.

Thoughts on Expired NDT?
Hi I have found a stash of expired NDT, and some expired
Cytomel
, and some expired NutriAdrenal supplements. Plus other supplements. They all stem from this struggle which started years ago. What do we think about expired NDT? How long after the expiry date would you still use it for?

SIDE EFFECTS FROM HYPO MEDS
Over the last year I’ve tried Synthroid, Synthroid with
Cytomel
, Erfa, Erfa with Synthroid, and compounded NDT - which is pretty much all we have available to us in Canada.

Is there any correlation between low thyroid hormones & spinal stenosis
One of the reasons I am asking is that I truly felt that adding t3/
Cytomel
gave me a bit of jolt with walking at first, which has been severely affected by this issue. Thanks in advance.

Liothyronine OTC in Thailand
Brand "
Cytomel
". The easiest way to explain what you need (if it's not just a diarrhea or headache remedy) is to present a packet or a picture of what you want. It wasn't on their shelf, so I asked how many days it would take to become available.

What could cause such dramatic weight gain
I have currently been on .1 mg Synthroid and 5 mcg
Cytomel
for three months, and while the blue lips, freezing cold and fatigue are gone, my legs are super swollen and hard, my "weight" is up 20 pounds in two months (unexplained by diet / lifestyle).

Patience… right? (Med change, blood test timing, heart racing)
Now on 50mcg, plus 10
Cytomel
. Previously 25 plus 10. (Note I switched from Lio to
Cytomel
brand a week ago but below problem precedes that) I am waiting to hit the 6 week mark to get my numbers.
