Increase

[kimbo]

Well sine decreasing my thyroxine and added T3 I have had to increase my levo, terrible sweating when waking up and racing heart, now I'm getting body tremors for short brief seconds again, fed up really end of moan xx

Body tremors sound like it could be an adrenal problem to me causing hyper like symptoms. It might be a good idea to do a 24 hour adrenal saliva test (if you can afford one). Sorry you are so fed up and here is a good place to moan xxx

Hi Kimbo, What are you T4 and Free T3? My Endo says the only reliable test for Adrenal glands, is the 24 hour urine collection, cortisone tablet at midnight ( script) and blood test at 9am. I had one at my first consultation as she suspected it to be low. It was, but we wanted to get my thyroid right firs, in the hope that, as often is the case, it improved.. Then I had another, still low, but not as low, by then could not have cortisone, no other treatment would really help.May be you may need to go on armour etc, but unless a very obliging GP it would mean a private script, quite expensive. You still need TSH, T4 and Free T3 before treatment ( because of the content) and then 6 weeks after starting treatment.

I hope that helps,

Jackie
