Stopping T3 /increasing Levo?

[Oakwood4321]

Thanks for all recent help.

I saw my endocrinologist today in person and explained about tightness in chest /breathing difficulties when out walking (even 5 minutes into walk on flat). It’s behind sternum and seemed worse when I increased Lio from 5 to 10 mcg per day which is why I didn’t stay on 10.

I’m asking GP for referral for an exercise tolerance test and Endo thought it a good idea . He didn’t think it was heart related.

I told him I’d like to stop the Lio to see if this improved, he thought it a good plan for now.

He said I can just stop the 5mcgs per day straight away. and should increase Levo from 75 back to my original dose 87.5 mcgs per day.

Would anyone have thoughts on this/experience of how they might have altered doses differently or does this sound ok to change both all at once.

🙏🏽

I have been having palpitations, Dr asked me to stop 5 mcg of T3, awaiting blood test result.
