I am taking 1mcg of t3 4-6x a day, and 1 drop of tyromax every other day. I think thats almost a 1:1 t3:t4 ratio or thereabout. I am about 4-5 days in.
I don't think I am clinically hypothyroid, but I experienced major stresses a few years ago and I want to recover to health, especially physically and begin exercising again. I haven't been able to due to muscle tension issues making physical activity unenjoyable.
With thyroid, I feel very good during the afternoon and my mornings are getting better. I also have a higher appetite and am eating more meals. I am really craving sugar, especially sodas and juice and fruit and milk. I sometimes drink 3-4 cans of coke in the span of a couple hours in the afternoon and evening. At night I feel ok.
The positives:
-chronic muscle tension spontaneously resolving. especially in my feet, ankle, calves.
-good mood and more enjoyment of daily activities
-more motivation to work and slightly more resilency to stress
-warmer
-less desire to smoke tobacco
-less waking up at night to drink milk or juice. used to be 2-3 times a night, now only once and sometimes not at all when I will sleep right through.
-better sense of smell, posture, and smoother/clearer breathing
the negatives:
-some weird anxiety upon feeling better. feeling good and having natural movement due to dissapating muscle tension is something i haven't experienced in a long time, so it is new and sometimes can be strange. this aspect is kind of minor but worth mentioning. I experienced a lot of negative things in the period my health got bad and I feel like releasing that trauma as the tension relieves I experience some weird stuff.
-at night sometimes i get cold and weird feeling. going to try eating more snacks at night.
I don't have a thermometer yet but my pulse is around 70-75 when I feel my best. It goes as low as 55-60 when I don't feel that good. I get the sense if I can maintain 75-85 throughout the daytime I will achieve the health that I want to exist as I desire.
I am going to start tracking temps and keeping caloric intake and nutrition density up. I'm considering only doing 1mcg t3 3x a day and 1 drop tyromax at night as I'm wary about over shooting what I am trying to achieve.
