Hello everyone, my rest pulse is between 90-100. It is normal? I'm on 3,5 ndt about 2 weeks. Since I increased, I’ve had this fast puls but no palps or atr.fibr.. If I want to reduce I feel hipo symptoms. I hope that things will settle down.

I should do bloods after 6 weeks and see what your levels are. It's the only true way of seeing what the situation is. If you get anymore symptoms please post again as may be then you need to cut down. I'm on 1.75 two days and 1.50 the next and juggle my experteese with a pill cutter to try and get the doses more even so I don't feel the difference so low at the side of you. But weare all different but do test m if anything doesn't feel quite right

Hm, strange. Today I reduced with 1/2 grain my ndt, my pulse now is 78 and my anxiety is almost gone. I will see how it will be tomorrow.

May be give it more time to settle and with going down half a grain you have the option of being able to go up a quarter if you feel that a good idea but feeling better jtoday just by reducing today probably mean you need to let itceven out then take it from there.

I got up to three grains when I first changed over but was ok but wasn't seeing signs of improvement and I'd takenNDT from day one many yearsago so knew what to expect but did this to fit around Endo visit. He had my bloods though so dropped me down to 1.75 which I thought would be too much but he was spot on!

I'm very sensitive to hormones, it seems that what goes over 100mcg T4 (3 grain of Thai-thiroyd = 105 mcg T4 +24 T3) causes me anxiety and fast pulse. I'll see what's going on. Sorry for my bad english, I'm not native.
