Local anaesthetic - when to take T3 ?

3 Replies

I have a tea-plate sized haematoma that I've been fighting to get treated. Now have hospital appointment where it will be scanned and hopefully drained.

Normally take T3 three times a day so not sure what I should do. Appointment is early afternoon.

Thanks!

I a.m not medically qualified but would take the T3 after your op. You can always take two equal doses instead of the three.

When I have ops, I take my armour (containing T3) in the morning, before my op.I feel as if it helps me through it.

Hi if it a local I would just take your meds as usual. It will keep you on an even keel and that is what your body is used to. Hope that helps.
