Guest guest Posted January 16, 2012 Report Share Posted January 16, 2012 I am now thinking that I can't convert T4 at all to T3 as I still have joint pains,especially my hips which get very painful and I have been having steroid injections in them. I am trying to get an appointment with one of the recommended doctors to see if one of them can try me on T3 only to see if this works and it might be an answer to the joint pain. I rang the secretary of one of these doctors who said I might need other blood tests etc., but does anyone know if there is a blood test that would prove that some people can't convert T4 to T3 or do these doctors just go on symptoms, I really don't know and I'm not going to talk to my G.P. about it as I already sent him some info. on NDT through the post and when I went to see him he didn't say anything about it so I don't want to broach the subject with him at present, he didn't seem that knowledgeable regarding thyroid complications. Any help would be appreciated. love Ann. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
