First Id like to say hi and thank you to those on this site it has been a great resource. I'm looking for some advice on my current protocol.
My doctor is very open minded and let's me play around a lot with dosing but he isn't very good with explaining or understanding my individual case.
I am currently on 1/2 grain ndt with some improvement. My latest labs are as follows
Tsh is 1.92 Range is .20-4.00
Ft3 is 5.4 range is 3.5-6.5
Ft4 is 12.7 range is 9-23
Before ndt my labs were
Tsh 6.34
Ft3 5
Ft4 11.1
He wants me to increase my ndt by another 1/4 grain. I tried to but felt like I was getting more hyper. Could it be that the added t3 is making me hyper because my ft3 is already pretty high.
I have done a cortisol test and I'm a little low in the range but nothing drastic. He also has me on dhea and testosterone
I have dealt with anxiety and fatigue a long time it has gotten better but I believe i still have room for improvement

I'd did try to increase it for a couple days and at first felt good but then I started getting a really heavy heart beat,more anxious,sweaty palms. Kinda hyper like.
You do get slight hyper symptoms with NDT increases for the first few days but they will settle if you ride it out. Increasing by 1/4 of a grain is very sensible to get your levels just right. I doubt with such a low increase you will go hyper. It sounds as if your doctor is good and monitoring you well.
