Hi books--
I'm going in for thyroid tests soon to see if I should add T3 to my Synthroid; I *would* like to see what effects Cytomel might have.
As you go off rx meds, you might consider adding niacinamide (a natural supplement) for anxiety. Even if it doesn't completely control your anxiety, it may make tapering off of meds less of an ordeal. From the threads above, it sounds like a number of babblers have found it helpful. I plan to try Enada (NADH), TMG, fish oil and magnesium supplements after the T3 issue is settled; I hope some or all may enable me to d/c, or at least lower the dosage of, the Effexor and/or Wellbutrin I currently take. So, I think that your plan definitely sounds worth trying.
I hope that "less is more" for both of us. Good luck!---medlib
