Hi Ilene,
Cytomel at 25 mcg (mg?) made me very very hyper. My T3 went through the roof, which also drove my TSH up. I definately had symptoms of being hyper including insomnia and a frontal headache. I was taking it with synthroid. I tried switching to Armour Thyroid to try to get a better balance, but that kept me high and out of whack, too. I am giving up on augmenting any T3, because it doesn't seem like my body needs it. Time for me to just focus on T4, like I did in the beginning. That seemed to work best.I think I stopped Cytomel abruptly, but I was not on it as long as you have been.
