Hi,
Took 125mcg synthroid for 1YR with mixed results so added cytomel.
endo reduced synthroid to 75mcg added 10mcg cytomel
after 6 weeks blood:
THYROID STIMULATING HORMONE (TSH)
0.35 - 5
2.29 mIU/L
NORMAL
FREE T4
12 - 22
12 pmol/L
FREE T3
3.4 - 5.9
3.7 pmol/L
Well was feeling cold so endo added 10mcg of cytomel.
So on 75mcg synthroid and 20mcg cytomel
afetr 6 weeks lab:
THYROID STIMULATING HORMONE (TSH)
0.35 - 5
0.32 mIU/L

I have muscle pain now burning sensation and cramps in legs and hands.
Is it the FT4?

Reduce cytomel? increase synthroid?
Don't know what do do.
Will be happy for some help. Going to endo on Thursday.
