Sorry, this might be a bit long winded.
I've been on 2 1/2 grains of NDT for +- 6 weeks, after following the process in STTM. I've just received new test results after increasing by 1/2 grain from the last time I posted. To be hones I feel a bit lost. From what I can see I could do with a slight increase in NDT but when I tried that I felt hyper, palpitations, agitated, racing pulse etc. But on the 2 1/2 grains I feel hypo, tired, achey, hair falling out, brain fog.
I have Paul Robinson's book about Recovering with T3, but I just cant wrap my head around it for some reason. I know no-one can tell me exactly what to do, but some advice would be appreciated. I don't know whether to up NDT and wait out the hyper to see if it goes away, or reduce my NDT and add in some T3....the mind boggles. This self treating can get on top of a person sometimes.
I am still treating B12, Vit D, folate, adrenals (although on last test those numbers were good) and have added in Omega 3, Mag and K2
Anyway, here are my results:
Thank you!
