Dosing T3 with Metavive.

Hi All

I have recently started taking some T3 with my Metavive (60mg) as I got to nearly 180mg of Metavive and went thryotoxic. So after much trial and error with it, am sticking with the 60mg and trying to do more T3 as I know I have conversion issues and the DIO2 Gene SNP. I don't want to completely go T3 yet if I can help it as I am working a lot on all other areas of my health to help with thyroid conversion etc. I wanted to know what sort of doses you guys are on, who also take either Metavive or NDT with T3? Also do you take all in one go or split the T3 throughout the day? I seem to be able to tolerate quite a bit of T3 in one go but am not sure if this is the right way to go about it as don't want to cause myself other problems in the long term. I know a lot of people split it but I don't have adrenal problems and don't dip during the day energy-wise. Any feedback/advice would be greatly appreciated. Happy weekend and thank in advance. :)

I take Metavive I (15mg x2) on its own and split the dose between breakfast (15mg) and lunch (15mg).

I also take adrenal cortex with it and often do have really bad energy dips, usually in the mid to late afternoon.

I did used to take both Metavive in the morning and as far as I can remember that also worked fine for me.
