I have begged my endocrinologist to add Cytomel to my Synthroid (well lower the Synthroid) and he refuses. Yesterday I took L-Tyrosine for the first time and I had energy. It was weird. A good weird.
I didn't take it today and I was lethargic.If you look in the Health section you will see other threads on thryoid problem. But the forums on thyroid.about.com are better (no offence Dr. Bob).

> I am on .88 synthroid for about 7 - 8 weeks now. I had labs done this week and found out they are normal T4 8.1 (5.53 - 11.), TSH .865 (.465 - 4.68), T-Uptake 26.4 (23.,5 - 40.6). I still feel terrible and am hoping that my symptoms will catch up to my labs. It is so frustrating as you know. I was reading some information about naturethroid and wondered if adding that to levothyroxine might help. It appears to help some people.
