Guest guest Posted May 25, 2011 Report Share Posted May 25, 2011 I recently wrote to one of the UK's top endocrinologists to ask why is it that once people are clinically diagnosed hypothyroid they may need to be at the top of their ranges in free T4 and free T3, but undiagnosed people with symptoms are ignored when they are at the low end of the range. I asked the question wouldn't it be better to supplement? His answer was that people with hypothyroidism don't produce any T3 . He says you cannot compare results of function tests of people taking thyroxine versus those who don't. Interesting... CJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
