Hi everyone!

I hav tried to balance my armour dose this last 5 months. I used 105 for 6 weeks and

Then added some testogel after 2 weeks on 105 since my testo was low. So 4 weeks after the test i started to feel fine. I disd some bloodworks and TSH show 3,4 (0,5-4,0)Ft 3 was quite lowon 4,5(3,5-6,5) Ft3 had dropped from 5.5 to 4,5 on the same dose of armour since starting with Testogel(5g) but I still felt ok even though I would crash two days after exercise or alcohol "abuse" I guessed that was because drained down Ft3 so I wnt up to 112 mg NDT (yeah,strange number but possible by cutting 48 mg Nature Throid in hal and addin 60+15 Armour!) Did fine for another week (not testing training or alcohol) Tried to upper testogel to 1,5 sachet but exoerienced crash feeling,night sweat and insomnia.Starting to feel bad and uppered my NDT (only armour this time) After a few days I cannot get any sleep(wake upe at 0200 AM drowned in sweat) and feel teribble with aches and feeling of current and fatigue during the day. Now what to do? I feel its to early to do new bloodworks? I feel this is a thyroid thing but..

Another thing,my Cortisol is ok.
