[QUOTE="WrenchHead80, post: 113851, member: 17451"] I've been following that thread since you started it. Hope you find what works for you Vince. I'm thinking my problem is I need to raise my dose again. I've read from the two other thyroid sites that are referenced here a lot that staying on a low dose to long can cause problems. In my case if I did stay on that 1/2 grain only for longer I probably would have given up. Me raising it definitely helped but again by the end of the second week taking 1 grain a day, improvements stopped and staying on that current protocol I feel I may have gone backwards a little after a little time, hence the anxiety showing up. Was honestly worried about raising it more (past 1 grain a day) due to not knowing how my iron levels were doing supplementing with iron and never testing my cortisol. Didn't want to have to deal with a pooling or going hyper problem. I'm hoping when I get my labs it shows I'm going in the right direction with everything and things are working like they should and I just need to raise that dose some more till I'm at a optimum level. On 1 grain a day I'm still not seeing elevated blood pressure, body temp or heart rate numbers. My temp is actually still on the low side by midday by mouth (82.0-82.4). Which I'm thinking is another sign I need to raise it. Hopefully I get labs soon so I can move forward. [/QUOTE]
