A recovery story; thyroid medication and dexamethasone

That looks like robocopp who is now on aromasin.

I was on synthroid and I upped my dose to 112.2mcg on my own. My doc wanted me to gradually increase which I did, but at the end of the prescripton I started cutting the 75mcg in half and taking one full 75mcg with the half of another 75mcg to equal 112.2. It definitaley helps with erections. Not a cure but helped. The prescription ran out and the doc is across the country. Perhaps if I continued to up the dose and with time and with clomid I think I would of felt real good. But synthroid at higher doses definately helped. Its just hard getting docs on board with prescribing high doses.

Also, a long story short, I was taking T3 at 5 to 25 mcg, by accident the pharmacy gave me 50mcg pills instead of 5mcg pills, So I was taking the 50mcg pills, two or three a day not knowing and that I was taking such a hightdose. This was the first time my body temp went up to normal. I was getting light headed though. I told my doc and he told me not to take that much and I got the right prescription but never took the doses that high.

If you can get a script for synthroid for high doses I think you will definately see improvements. You have to start off with small amounts and work your way up, at least that is with the doc told me or else you could feel some unpleasant side effects. When I came off I returned back to the way I felt before I starting taking the synthroid.

I just noticed that vincentv has a thread about this story; viewtopic.php?f=1&t=6147

ĂĽ havent tried dexa and t4 together but it can be true recovery .

there is something immune system involvement in our issue. Think Guys.

1-Betasitosterole is found in many foods (Avocado, many nuts, vegatables etc) but does not cause any problem when eaten in foods.
2-Almost all cases of side effects happened when liquid saw palmetto was used. One of my friend was using powdered saw palmetto for years when I told him about my condition he did not believe me but he stopped using it without any sides.Another Guy I know, he used Fin for 4 -5 months around 2004 without any sides and stopped it without any sides.
3- In almost all cases sides effects started or become worse after stopping the drug. The same is true for Accutan. I read a lot of cases where problem started after stopping the drug.

im particularly interested in dexamethasone. researching it, it seems to be used in a variety of different treatments for short periods with strong results. does anybody else have a story about dexamethasone?
