I think you've got it - you're adjusting.....I went through it (bloat, water retention) but it's going away now. Did you ask your dr. about just a bit of
T3? That might help too....

hang in there!

I take 5 mcg 1x a day - it stays in your system for 8-12 hours - not 2. I'm going for a blood test in a few more weeks and hoping to get a wee bit more.
