    T3 Side effects

    Wondering about T3 taper up.

    Running EQ 750, TE 500, Proviron 75. Been on for 3 weeks with clean diet. Now i am switching to a hard cutting diet, fasting until noon, then ketogenic cycling 4days followed by carb up evening. Along with diet I am using T3(dose q below) and 1500mcg HGH Fragment 176-191. The frag is done in 3 sets of bilateral 250mcg shots directed at the stubborn ab fat. Shots done every 3 hours during morning fast along with light cardio in am. Weight training is now one intense fullbody workout on day after the carb up day in the ketocycle.

    Now I started T3 50 mcg day 1 and 100 mcg day 2, which resulted in headache, tension in my throat and low level feeling of dread. Ie feeling like something bad is about to happen or your going to die. I could ignore it but it sucked.

    The 50mcg dose had no noticeable sides, was the problem cumulative?

    Is this just from too high of a dose or is it a result of too high to fast?

    Also what is the half life T3?

    Its day 3 and I havn't taken any T3 still have low level headache, drinking lots of water and coffee. Addicted to caffine and i don't believe im dehydrated.(only two reasons I would normally get a headache)

    Trying to decide if I should dose 50mcg T3 or maybe just 25. Should I wait until headache is gone? Thinking I should.

    With substances I usually start fairly small, if I get headaches, wait till they are gone before upping dose, but keep taking the smaller dose(unless reaction is really bad then I might stop entirely). On average 25 mcg is enough to cover your normal production, so maybe take that for a few days till it goes away then bump up to 50 mcg.

    Serum half life of T3 varies. In obese people, it can be about 1.5 days, but in people of normal weight it can be up to 3 days. So if you are uncomfortable, I would lay off and start lower and smaller when you start again (when you feel better) and increase more slowly.

    thanks
    Been doing more reading and yes it appears the pyramid is because your endogenous production is still going for the first few days. Thats something you don't typically have to worry about with most substances. I was thinking why pyramid, I'll just run it straight thru and taper at the end. Now I know better.

    Do to experiences in my younger days with mind altering substances it was easier to block out the impending sense of doom/death the T3 was causing last night. Still not fun.

    Think I'll start back at 50mcg divided dose per day tomorrow and just ride there for a few days. Least I know my T3 is good

    I can only handle 80mcg/day with T3. I've gone way higher than that and felt like I was in a fishbowl. At 80 I feel fine and can see results and don't have any harsh sides that I don't want to deal with.
