dosage question to metavive users please

[hendb]

I hope someone will read this message and answer me..

i was taking 1 (then 1,5 grains Natur-thiroid) with lots of ups and down. I finally realised the batch i was using was one of the recalled ones..thus the inefficiency maybe.

so yesterday i switched to metavive pro (100mg porcine, under naturopath prescription)

my temperature sipped a little

and im feeling really hypo (tired, cold hands...) i wasnt feeling food on NDT either though.

at what pace one should be increasing Metavive? should i remain on this dosage for a week? or increase slightly?

thanks a lot for any help

Presumably Metavive Pro?

Isn't your naturopath guiding you?

[hendb in reply to SeasideSusie]

Well she should be... but she doesn’t answer emails and she seems to be wanting me to pay for a consultation for every question I have so...

I think you should treat this as any thyroid hormone replacement. Stay on one dose for 6-8 weeks then test/reassess.

Ok! For some reason I thought I could be increasing according to my temperatures but ok.. I will wait for my body to adjust to it

Thank you susie
