Thyroid regrets
-
I took low doses of cynoplus and cynomel for a few weeks. Felt alive like never before for a few days until the T4 caught up with me and I went hyperthyroid for a few days. I slowly tapered off T4 as of 2-3 weeks ago and now have been off everything for a week. It appeared to be a low cholesterol issue.
Now my vision is blurry. My right arm and leg regularly tingle. I have to monitor my blood sugar. The top of my head often tingles too, and I’m losing hair.
If you have advice for what to do about any of this, great. If not, I post this as a cautionary tale. Just take it easy. -
I would eat robustly
Foods that I know agree with me- easy to digest ones50/20/20 or 40/30/30 ratio
Get your glycogen stores back up
Seems like you burnt right through them so to speak -
@Peatful I’ll see what I can do. Having to spread sugars throughout the day so it’s a challenge.

@schemingfonzie why do you think your thyroid was low?
For me I'm pretty sure it was due to heavy metals and I've noticed symptoms crop up again as I increase my temperature. I'm just going slowly with it -
@Living_thing not sure, really. Been a fat kid despite not eating that much since about 8 years old.

@schemingfonzie Sounds like an adrenaline reaction more than going hyper. How do you know you were hyperthyroid?

@BroJonas I know the symptoms of the two overlap a lot but they map perfectly to my increase and decrease of thyroid dosage
