What's the difference?  (I was on cytomel first - prior to the radiation, then they put me on synthroid)

well there are two thyroid hormoones ..i assume you know this.. t3 and t4... t3 is the active hormone while t4 is sort of inactive (but not really, it does have some roles besides just being converted to t3)... your synthroid is just t4... cytomel is just t3... armour thyroid is both t3 and t4 in the right ratio (natural to human body)..

Hey mass04.  I'm doing pretty good actually.  All my levels aren't quite perfect yet, but I'm feeling a hell of a lot better than several months ago.   I even started a contest prep.   :D 

Thank you so much for asking.   :-*

How would you compare nexium to say, Tums?
I've had Dr's tell me that too much Tums or Rolaids can fuck up one's PH balance of stomach acids and what not. Nexium is the real deal -- pretty expensive because my insurance doesn't cover 100%.

The first two times I took Ambien it worked well...however after that it put me out for about two hours & then leaves me drowsy & fucked up for about six hours.

Scripts at my house:
Norvasc (high blood pressure)
Darvocet (two herniated discs)
Robaxin (two herniated discs)
Valium (always keep a little around in case I have to fly anywhere)
Retin-A (I always break out in the winter...long story)

I live in a condo & our association fee used to include heat. However two years ago they lowered our fee & we started getting a gas bill. So my wife's response is to turn the heat way down. So when I go to bed it's fucking freezing...so I go to bed in layers. I'm one of those people who sweats a lot & easily (especially at night - on or off AAS) so I spend all night sweating my ass off. I usually wake up at least once to change shirts but not always. So needless to say that causes breakouts on my chest/shoulders. Drives me fucking crazy...I'd rather pay the extra $25-30 bucks a month & be a little more comfortable.

maybe for people that DONT have sleeping problems.

but for those of who do have severe sleeping problems (1-2 hours a night) ambien is comparable to ephedra.

low dose TCA of choice

serequel, trazadone or remeron are some options.


I have

clonazepam
lorazepam
sertraline
pregabalin
bupropion
propranolol
zopliclone


i only take zoloft, lyrica and wellbutrin right now. Will get off the lyrica when the sleep isnt so fucked from wellbutrin. Wellbutrin is nice for body composition.

the sedatives are more for recreation. :D
