Hoping for some advice on my situation:
Male in mid-30s. In decent shape. I'm consistently cold, especially hands-feet. I've also just noticed temp drops upon having a meal. Noticing the temp drop especially with dinner but eating quality protein, carbs, fat with adequate sugar. I also have been facing a very stressful iatrogenic condition the last 2yrs which typically causes chronic pain/discomfort. Used exogenous corticosteroids since a toddler and began withdrawal from them 2yrs ago. So, recovering from potential HPA axis suppression amongst other things.
Found out I was hypo about 1yr ago and started implementing thyroid (cynomel/cynoplus). Nutritionally speaking I am eating 4-5x a day with a balance if protein, carbs, fats via an animal based/bioenergetic & Peat approach. I get beef liver and oysters throughout the week. Carrot salad almost every day, bamboo shoots 2-3x/week, boiled WB-mushrooms 1-2x/wk. Mexican coca-cola and orange juice daily.
I take;
-T3/T4 (currently 40mcg T3 - 60mcg T4 but plan on increasing dosage)
-Asprin: 2-4g/daily split up with meals (higher dose bc of pain/stress)
-K2: 1mg per 325mg of Asprin daily
-Pregnenolone: 70mg daily
-Progesterone: just started experiencing with Progest-E every so often
-Vit E: EOD
-Calcium Bicarb: Daily with a meal
-Magnesium
-Cascara (Emodin): EOD
-Cyproheptadine: just started .5mg with evening meal last few nights
-Coffee with cream and sugar daily
-Mexi coca-cola daily
-Orange juice daily
Not sure if I simply need to increase thyroid or what. I'll experiment with that but any additional advice would be helpful. If you have any questions please comment and let me know. I probably left out important details. Thanks!
