Zen thanks for that,
My blood pressure has increased and I was wondering if it was the tyrosine.
Before any meds..blood pressure about 90/60..too low (in 2001), pulse ..usually couldn't find but irregular and raced on exercise..like walking 20 steps <g>
After treatment (thyroid , increased salts, vitamins /minerals etc)..and weight gain...up to 120/80..pulse 88..strong and even , no more racing pulse
After adding in tyrosine ..more weight gain (which I was blaming on the T3 stimulating my appetite too much), yesterday blood pressure 135/88..pulse 91.I've stopped the T3 by itself..for some reason it causes a REALLY strong hunger in me, one that blocks all thought...Any thoughts anyone. It does usually cause an appetite increase for the first few days..but mine was very strong and never wore off, like I was missing something else I needed to go with the T3 to control the hunger pangs
Any thoughts as to why this occurs anyone?now I just need to find something to lose the weight, sigh...
Does tyrosine increase weight too?Jan
