I has helped some
Working / Worked
I liked the cytomel. Some of the side effects, sweating, trouble sleeping, heart rate increased.
Working / Worked
I take a small dose of this when I hit my daily lull around 2:30 or 3:00. It definitely helps wake me up without feeling too amped up from taking another supplement.

I've used Cytomel for the past 2+ years continuously. It provides constant energy levels and clear thinking. I take this two times in the morning. I take 2 daily doses of 5 mcg Cytomel each day.

I was on it for 10 days it helped but it brought my TSH to low. I felt good for about a week on it though.
Working / Worked
I began Cytomel in June by itself. My #'s crashed. Was previously on Synthroid and convinced by doc to let me do both Cytomel and Synthroid. Feel better but still extremely tired all the time.
Working / Worked
I have been on cytomel for just over a month now and I feel pretty good with it. Even though my thyroid was funtioning while i still had it, I feel like I have a little more energy now with the Cytomel. I didn't experience any side effects.
