[QUOTE="HarryCat, post: 7236, member: 856"] Personally I have not found a strong link between my TRT and my hypothyroid treatments. I have been adjusting both at the same time and don't feel that they have been interfering much with each other. I have found that, at least for me, trying to get my thyroid meds dialed in has been well over 90% of my problem. From your signature it sounds like you are taking synthroid only, most people your age do not do well on synthroid only and do better adding in some T3. I've also found a huge difference in how I feel on different brands of T4. I've tried synthroid, Tirosint, unithroid and Sandoz. Synthroid has povidone and acacia in it. Tirosint, unithroid, and Sandoz do not have povidone, but the unithroid has acacia. Many people have negative reactions to povidone and acacia fillers. I found that I do much, much better on Sandoz T4, it feels as if the others have no active ingredient at all in comparison. I've been feeling so much better that I've started to add some T3 back in to my protocol. Have you ever tried NDT? Many people do very well on that. When you say that you labs are all over the place, do you mean test., thyroid, or both? And to get back to your main question, if you did not feel a great improvement when getting on test. you probably won't feel all that different going off. Personally, when I've gone off I've gotten hot flashes, muscle weakness, and increased fatigue. [/QUOTE]
