Paul Robinson is a thyroid patient advocate (not a medical practitioner) and is the pioneer of the CT3M of dosing T3. Most of his information is for hypothyroid people with a thyroid and he writes more towards T3 mono dosing patients. He has published three books and has an informative blog. Darcey and I have both tried his CT3M. I think we both had favorable results but not enough for me to stick with setting an alarm for 4 am everyday. I do think it helped me tolerate T3 when I was having difficulty adding and increasing.
Medication
My medication saga is a long and winding road of curves, hills and numerous crashes. Some days when things are crappy I think that I will never get it right, other times I’m so full of hope and think that I have finally cracked the code and found my magic dose. It is definitely a path of emotional ups and downs.
Fatigue has played larger and lesser roles in the course of this hypothyroidism experience but I can always feel its breath on the back of my neck.
For extended periods of time it permeated every aspect of my life. Working through strategies to manage around it and have a life in spite of its grip, I found ways to cope.
