Cytomel T3: Dont feel high dose

[aolsux00]

Had this question in the wrong forum previously...


Ive been on cytomel for a few days and I dont feel it. I'm not really warmer or hot, I kinda got headaches for a few days, but thats about it. Does anyone know if its really working or not? And I know for sure its real and not underdosed. And my resting pulse is 85, normally under 70.

Day 1: 50mcg
Day 2: 75mcg
Day 3: 100mcg
Day 4: 125mcg
Day 5: 125mcg
Day 6: 125mcg
Day 7: 150mcg
Day 8: 150mcg

Someone mentioned it doesnt need to be felt to be working, so does that mean I should keep upping the dose or keep it at 150? I see people go up to 125mcg, but I thought they just stopped there because going higher then that caused intolerable side effects.

i wouldnt go any higher bro. actually i keep my dose at 100mcgs and it works for me but i never really feel anything

agree^^^keep the dose at 100mcgs or lower as much more can cause catabolism (eating of the muscle for energy)

You know I was thinking about adding that but I havnt done enough research... But from wikipedias article, it sounds like T4 is converted to T3:

Thyroxine is a prohormone and a reservoir for the active thyroid hormone triiodothyronine (T3). T4 is converted in the tissues by deiodinases to T3

So would there really be a point in adding it?

[Phate]

in adding it to t3? no

i'd use it instead of t3 as it breaks down slower so the catabolic effects aren't such an issue, it's kind of like a slower but steadier instead of faster but less control issue

The only problem is that I have a ton of t3 and I would have to find some t4 and it would take a while to get
