| cytomel - how long until symptom relief?
I read another thread on this but it never really answered the question: how long after starting Cytomel can I tell if it is working? The specific symptoms I want relief from are: weight gain, memory loss, hateful mood. I was on Thyrolar 1.0 for two years and felt moderately better but my mood still seems to be depressed, I still can't remember ANYTHING and I have gained 15 pounds in the last six months. I started 25 mcg Cytomel last week after demanding a change in meds from my Endo. I do feel a bit more relaxed, less hateful and more patient after only a few days. In the past year, in order to lose weight, I had to eat a strict body builder contest diet and do cardio 30-60 min per day 6x a week. Before I went to ask for a new Rx, I was eating fish, chicken and green veggies with oatmeal and a banana for breakfast, about 1200 calories per day, and still gaining weight. All things considered, how long, at this high dose, can I lose the 20 pounds I need to lose? How long until my mood improves and stabilizes? What can I expect?
