I have a theory about the hair thing. When I was raising my Synthroid (T4), I would get 3 days of feeling awesome, feeling like I should be feeling normally, you know with full clarity, etc. and my hair was thick and bright and dense, then, after 3 days, wham! I would get anxiety, depression, etc. I think that somehow T3 and T4 have an affinity with mercury and a dosage raise causes mercury to be taken out of the nervous system (I felt great) and the after a few hours to be redistributed (felt like crap). So I think that the first roud of DMSA took enough mercury out of the blood stream to cause me to better convert T4 to T3 (a lot of conversion takes place in the brain) and so my hair is now better receiving T4 and T3... But its quite a theory!!

I am getting ready to feel bad after the 2nd round because of the raise in DMSA dosage and of the adding of ALA. We'll see...
