Hey Guys,
I've been feeling a bit "off" the last 2.5 weeks or so.
It started with me doing a trial run of a new product called "Dermatherm". About 10 days into it, I started feeling like I did when I increased my Armour Thyroid too quickly. I stopped taking the product. Too bad because I felt like it was doing a good job!
I have been off for about 2 weeks now, but still do not feel quite right. Some things that have happened:
-I've lost almost 5 lbs in the last week. This is really unusual for me and significant for someone of my size. I've been keeping a close eye on caloric intake and fluid intake. It hasn't really changed and in fact, I've been eating more the last 3 days or so to try to counteract this. My weight had been holding steady for a good month up to this point.
-I've been feeling "overheated" in the evenings. Took an armpit temp this evening. It was 98.4. My son's was 97.6 and my wife's was 96.8.
-I feel like symptoms of adrenal fatigue have surfaced again (dizziness when standing, loss of concentration, etc). I know excess thyroid activity can overdrive the adrenals.
My regimen has been steady for the last 3 months or so.
Can I get some input from you guys that are also on thyroid medication? I've been on Armour for about 7 months now.
Thanks,
Sonny
