> Hi Everybody,
> I quit the Cytomel 10 mcgs. I was so HOT and nervous and racy. I didn't like that feeling of being all cracked up. The first feeling I would have when I would wake up is anxiety. I have been off it since Wednesday, about 4 days. And my mood is fine. But I am soooo tired. I just want to nap and nap and nap. But I have to go to work this afternoon. I hope I can keep focused.
> I had a level drawn on Wednesday, when I had maintanence ECT. But my pdoc wasn't able to get into the computer to get my values. I haven't yet told my pdoc I stopped the T3. Do you think my energy level will pop back up? I was on the Cytomel a little over a week. Or could I take the Cytomel every other day? It's not really possible to cut the teeny pill in half effectively. It just turns into dust...
> But like I said, my mood is pretty good. I have been getting involved in more things, and even having fun! I never laughed so hard the other night. It was such a blast. The ECT has been so helpful. Now I am down to every other week and soon I will go to once a month. I am just not sure the T3 is/was helping. It was adding to my anxiety and making my fuse a bit shorter. I sure would like to know my thyroid values...Can adding thyroid to a normal thyroid cause damage?
> Hope you all are well,
