Did you get better after taking some form of T3?

[Guest guest]

You may not be aware, but Thyroid Patient Advocacy www.tpa-uk.org.uk is in the process of creating a World Register of Counterexamples to levothyroxine-only (T4) therapy. This short survey is applicable only to those who continued to suffer symptoms on T4-only therapy, and who found those symptoms disappeared once they were started on a T3 hormone containing product , whether synthetic or natural thyroid extract.

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.

It is VERY important that if you fit this category that you complete the 3 questions with either 'YES', 'NO' or N/A here http://www.tpa-uk.org.uk/register_of_counterexamples.php . All responses will be collated online, and your email address (if you provide one) will be used ONLY to contact you at a later date should this be become necessary."

If you 'chat' on any other thyroid (or thyroid related forum), will you also please copy and paste this message there. We have the potential to gather thousands of such counterexamples, so please do what you can to help spread the word.

Many thanks
