Feeling bad on Tiromel

Hi I have been unable to buy any Cynomel/Cytomel (whatever) from Mexico so I bought some Tiromel. About a month later am finding it very difficult to cope and am feeling breathless. Any ideas what I should do please? I was feeling quite well on the tabs from Mexico but I don't think they will be available until November.

Mstp, some members have said they find Tiromel less potent than Mexican Cynomel. See whether increasing dose helps. Pfizer Cytomel is an alternative but is very expensive costing $258 for 100 x 25mcg.

Hi,

I am a T3 only girl and was doing OK on 2.25 tablets of the Mexican 25mcg. I had to up my dose by another .25 of a tablet after a few weeks on it. MIght be worth upping ypur dose a little whilst we await the other supplier coming back.

Best wishes.
