The pain isn't bad. It's super mild. Very mild. 1/10.
It's the popping / cracking that is alarming when getting out of car, internally rotating, etc.

I’m guessing pain killers and was kidding. But do take antiinflamatories
Fetty bruh
The best part of going moderate HRT is the low maintenance of it all.

The lack of pain is definitely good. Problem is those other issues could mean you’re not far from some serious pain. Take the time off brother. You’ll be better off. Took me being cut open 9 times and another several scopes before I realized rest was absolutely critical lol. But I’m a moron. Don’t be a moron.
Typical US ref ranges on these free thyroid results? Just wanted to confirm.The more the better baby!
TSH = .02
Free, T4 = 1.7
Free, T3 = 3.3
Was my last!

Yes typical US reference ranges

I'm excited. I'm more banged up now than I remember being and I don't even have a good reason. Nothing acute.

I'm going to refrain from any hip hinge or squatting movements. No leg press either.
Will stick to hamstring and quad isolations very light and high reps.
I think I'm noticing some improvement already with the BPC + TB megadosing. BPC is cheap AF I might need to bump my numbers up on it.
I'm also a moron but I'm trying not to be a huge moron, lol.
Thanks for the consult, Dr. Ben.

Sounds nice. Won't fix anything lol. If I had to play a football game though I'd be on board with something like that.
Titrate TSH to about 1. No point in going below that. Taking needless risk. You aren't getting tissue biopsies of free thyroid hormones so all you've got to go on is serum TSH, fT4, fT3. Thyrotropin (or lack thereof) is not inert in the heart. I could post a lot of info bit will refrain.
You are pushing yourself to severe subclinical hypothyroidism. Looking forward to your recent bloods. The titration curve of TSH vs fT4 is very nonlinear and individual. You could most likely (as someone with apparently normal thyroid function) take your T4 dose down slightly, keep TSH and fT4/fT3 in range.
Ok, had to post at least one paper haha.
Subclinical Hyperthyroidism: When to Consider Treatment
Subclinical hyperthyroidism is defined by a low or undetectable serum thyroid-stimulating hormone level, with normal free thyroxine and total or free triiodothyronine levels. It can be caused by increased endogenous production of thyroid hormone (e.g., in Graves disease, toxic nodular goiter, or...

Gotcha. This is inline with what @Excel.exe had mentioned in the thread earlier this morning.
I’ll take a week or two off of T4 and then resume at 100mcg per day instead of 200.
Gearing up for bloods this week. Just trying to fuck them up more with some MSten.
Wow you are a speedboat the size of a cruise ship. Just switch to 100 or 150 mcg/day and reassess bloodwork in 8 weeks. No need to cold turkey for a week. I have no data on the shape of your titration curve so I would go 150 but would also want to see your baselines. So many questions.
Also added more comments in above post. Bad habit.

I have the same question for my Docs next time I see them. I have had a biopsy done (no cancer), ultrasounds and non stop blood work. I'm starting to think it has nothing to do with gear since it has been going on years before.

This made me lol. It’s true. I only know one speed.
I’ve got so many questions too. I’ll go the 100mcg route.
I always appreciate more context so as far as I’m concerned it’s a good habit.

@readalot would it not be better if instead of dropping his dose in half, @Trenbolonetax started titrating it down every 2 weeks? he could continue his 200mcg per day this week, for next 2 week 175mcg per day, after that 150 per day for next 2 weeks, 125mcg per day for next 2 weeks and then continue 100mcg per day?
thyroids is something where i do not think anyone should just cut their dose in half because thyroid glands are extremely sensitive imho.
I recommended 25% reduction on T4 dose given his TSH bottomed out but what you state is what an Endo would Rx but even more cautiously. I can already see the Msten kicking in on TT haha. He's gotta be himself and make his own call.

TURN IT UP LOUD!
I will say as a personal anecdote I ignored my Endo's advice and cranked my T4 by 50% at one point when I was struggling to get my TSH down. Finally got to 336 ug per day T4 plus 12.5 ug /day T3 to reach TSH of 3. So I'm guilty as well.

Best I can do is 200 to 150 to 100. Can’t be arsed to quarter a 100mcg tab. But I’m sure you’re right about the appropriate way to go about it.
As @readalot said:
And that’s just kind of how I operate…
