World Register of Counterexamples to levohyroxine-only therapy

[Guest guest]

Dear all,

I am trying to involve as many sufferers of the symptoms of

hypothyroidism throughout the world as possible, and sincerely hope some

of you will be able to help. I am aware that there are a lot of you who

have already registered your thyroid status on our World Register of

Counterexamples to levothyroxine-only (T4) Therapy as I have been in the

process of sending this notice around for the past few months. This

message is for those of you who are not aware of the existence of this

very important project, and to thank all of those of you who have

already taken part.

This short survey is applicable only to those who continued to suffer

symptoms on levothyroxine -only therapy, and who found those symptoms

were mitigated or disappeared once they were started on a T3 hormone

containing product, whether synthetic or natural desiccated thyroid.

The existence of counterexamples to T4-only therapy prove

incontrovertibly that endocrinology's stance is dangerously wrong. Their

continuance of practising in line with the T4-only therapy dictat for

all sufferers of the symptoms of hypothyroidism is pernicious.

It is long overdue for endocrinologists to recognise that the symptoms

of hypothyroidism can result from

(a) insufficient secretion by the thyroid gland or

( insufficient levels of thyroid hormones in the body, associated with

peripheral metabolism and peripheral cellular hormone reception.

The several 'flawed' studies (900 participants) concluded that T4/T3

combination worked no better than T4-only therapy, but already, our

Register (to date) shows 914 counterexamples to T4 only.Our aim is to

find at least 1000 counterexamples in order for us to challenge those

flawed results.

The objective of this Register of Counterexamples to T4-only therapy is

to draw to the attention of those responsible authorities throughout the

world, the dire need for an urgent re-examination of the existing

protocol for the diagnosis and management of the symptoms of

hypothyroidism , and YOU can help us do this.

If you fit this specific category, please will you complete the 3

questions with either 'YES', 'NO' or N/A here

www.tpa-uk.org.uk/register_...

<http://www.tpa-uk.org.uk/register_of_counterexamples.php> .

All responses will be collated online, and your email address (if you

provide one, and you don't have to) will be used ONLY to contact you at

a later date should this become necessary.

If you are a member of any other thyroid support forum/group, please

will you help us all by copying this message to them.

NOTE: (A counterexample is a situation which fits the concept or premise

of an idea but produces a different result. To be responsible, a

scientist who finds a counterexample to his idea, must limit or abandon

his idea as unworkable, or not reliable.)
