Just heard from my Doc. today, have to lower my meds. again, Synthroid. I did add Cytomel a month ago, and I think this might be helping.
I am learning so much about Graves Disease and the many factors that go into treating it properly. Your Adrenal Glands are affected by thyroid disease too, so in order to get the best out of your medicine for your thyroid, you need to have your adrenal glands working. These glands are affected by stress, and can become fatigued.
Well, I will give the new dosage a month and see how that goes, I am also taking iron, Vitamin D and B vitamins.
I am reading everything I can about natural thyroid Hormones, I might go that route if I am not feeling better. A lot of information out there on the web though! I just bought the book, "Stop The Thyroid Madness." I do recommend this to anyone who is trying to live well with Thyroid issues. Also all of Mary Shomon's books are excellent.
