MaggieMay, What time do you take the T3?
I take now in afternoon around 1.30 but was taking before at 6 in morning with my levo but felt so dreadful so changed timing and feel a lot better if I could sleep ,
Maggiemay, as it's the extra 2.5mcg T3 which seems to be affecting your sleep you might try taking 2.5mcg with your Levo in the morning, or even at bedtime to see whether sleep improves. Bedtime sounds counter intuitive but many people find taking T3 at night aids sleep.
