Morning anxiety, how can I fix it?

Hello, I tried all possible combinations of doses and medications (levo, levo+T3, ndt, ndt+t3, etc) even if I take nothing, I can't get rid of anxiety around 11-12 a.m., it's so bad, I can't focus on what I'm doing. When I take T3 (more than 5 mcg) It's like I'm gaining weight instantly. Why is this happening???

Probably my adrenals are stressed, but I don't know how to fix it. My all levels are good, cortisol(saliva) it's ok, I take Vit.D3, zinc, Magn, Vit.B12/C.

Without blood results it is difficult to suggest anything. Anxiety can be an undermedicated or overmedicated symptom.

Hi

I have to agree with Lalatoot. Do you also have those saliva test results and the dhea which is v important too?

If you have your latest bloods and vitamin ( d3 folate ferritin and b12) results that would be v helpful.

I'm on 3,5 gr thai ndt, my ft4 is 10(10,6-22) and ft3 is 5,6(3,4-6,8). I have nausea, headaches, and as I said I gained weight compared to how I was on levo (125mcg+10T3).

Have you ever had a tilt table test? I had anxiety attacks especially in the morning and it was due to dehydration caused by disautonomia (POTS). A lot of symptoms fall under this umbrella including all kinds of hormone malfunction.

Hi, I don't think so. I don't understand exactly what it means, " tilt table test".
