Starting a new thread, as it may have been overlooked on lengthy TyroMax thread.
Hello all. Hopefully someone can help me.
My adult daughter has been on 1 tablet of Cynoplus (120mcg t4/30 mcg t3) for years now. Her main issues are a relentless psoriasis-like rash, extreme fatigue and difficulty losing weight. She notes that she feels no differently when she takes it, or when she takes short breaks from it.
So in order to move forward she decided to drop all cynoplus for two weeks to get lab tested to see where her thyroid stands without supplementation:
Results:
TSH: 2.701. (0.35-5.4)
FT3: 1.66. (1.71-3.71)
FT4. 0.61. (0.70-1.48)
Since she had been off all meds for two weeks, upon receiving the lab results she immediately began Tyromax 2 drops in AM a few days ago as her fatigue was bad and she is always cold. Now her fatigue is CRUSHING and she is having trouble getting through the day. Yesterday I told her to add another drop but she felt nothing.
Has she started with too low a dose? Can we keep raising? I told her to take it easy raising because I have read here of the problems some encounter when going too fast.
@haidut can you comment on how to proceed with this supplement?
Also I understand the ratio in TyroMax of 4:1 is what is needed in severely hypo people. I considered the above numbers to be pretty severe, plus her extreme symptoms. Tyromix is 2:1...from what I gather this would be for a milder case?
Appreciate input from anyone and Haidut as well and thank you.
Thank you
