Hi
Please could anyone enlarge on this for me, I feel I should know but I just don't which way to go
Having been strengthening up adrenals with Adrenavive I chose to do it re Dr P and not take thyroid meds at same time - actually not quite true, I took metavive with Adrenavive firstly per instructioin and then soon felt very ill again , so decided to go it alone with increased Adrenavive on its own for six weeks, Dr P gave thumbs up -
Has Been emotional rollercoaster without thyroid meds. Mood awful coping awful, (Metavive is like a ndt but no true measurement in it as far as I know but is porcine, natural )
Now have small or large dilemma (haha.) everything seems massive at present. - I want to intro thyroid meds again, now adrenals stronger, I can tell they are,
my mood was drastically low some days I imagine I had become a werewolf!!! Unbearable at times, also building up below range progesterone and ostregen. That must help too and diet good again and gf lactose free sugar free although weight the same
Funnily this is a good day for whatever reason, it surely can't be the one metavive I took this morning .....
However I have never got myself up to 75 levo,
I got up to 50 back the. and then my anxiety was screaming but importantly this was before I took Adrenavive
So, I still feel I should give levo 75 levo a go, the endo I saw just before I saw dr P said to do this. (She said my adrenals were fine but with Dr P reflex testing they were very flat indeed.!! Endo did the urine test and said normal, but the endo would oblige me t3 if still unwell and not converting after taking 75 levo. (what confused the issue and with great respect as it's a wonderful site, I was told I Wasnt converting on here, but then my tsh was 4.8? so I gather now it was impossible to know if I was converting or not with a tsh at nearly five?) so I took some t3, before seeing DrP as he was poorly and I was cancelled
My t4 though was always high in the range and my t3 was low in the range, still are, and tsh the same. - Only difference now is have good vitamins and stronger adrenals!
And hopefully better progesterone and ostregen
So after ramble, maybe I will go to 75 levo and give it a whirl. ?
Can I start on 50 for six weeks Or have I first to do 25 for six weeks? I read that 25 could be unhelpful but unsure why?
Any input really appreciated, Although very Tempted to go ndt as it's natural and not chemical, but appreciate not as clear cut as taking chemical ones separately. Especially if needing to adjust. and ndt has the other range of hormones in it which may or may not Be useful as we don't really know .........but possibly my t4 will go over top as was high anyway
I gather Dr P prefers me not to get hung up with numbers as how you feel more important, difficult,. I can get a bit paranoid but thought this is lack of t3
My villagi on foot is worsened, unsure if from lack of t3 or from antibodies, (White unpigmented spots ) anybody know please or even had success with it?
Lastly I'm noticing I have a kind of fatty bulge under one knee, not the other, a doctor wiped it off as fat, but it seems most strange it's not on both legs?
Sorry drawn out One day in the near future I hope to be 👍Xxx and so for all you lovely lot in the throws of xx
