Guest guest Posted May 1, 2011 Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 Hi, How much of the inactive T4 are you manageing to convert into T3?, are you taking selenium to help with the conversion? Of this T3, how much of it is being used by the cells? how high is cellular uptake? (I got mine measure via Genova - urine sample) How high is the ferritin? Very high can be caused by inflammation.... Have a look at Hypothyroidism Type II by Mark Starr... it explains lots of reasons why you could be hypo with 'normal' results.... http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=nb_sb_ss_i_2_58?url=search-alias%3Dstripbooks & fiel\ d-keywords=hypothyroidism+type+2+the+epidemic+paperback+by+mark+starr & sprefix=hy\ pothyroidism+type+2+the+epidemic+paperback+by+mark+starr . > > > Thanks for your comments, Sheila. > > Am stumped!!!

Guest guest Posted May 2, 2011 Report Share Posted May 2, 2011 How high is your ferritin? My hubby has haemacromatosis and some of his symptoms are similar to hypo symptoms ie. tiredness and brain fog. > > > Thanks for your comments, Sheila. > > Am stumped!!!
