Thyroid Hormone Resistance and T3 treatment...

[Guest guest]

Hi all,Could anyone with experience give me an idea of how long it might take to notice a difference after starting T3 if you have receptor resistance? Dr P thinks I have receptor resistance and we have started T3 only treatment, I'm on my 17th day (and have worked up to 38 mcg cytomel) now but still haven't noticed a change (although I did have 2 good days around day 10). When I last spoke to Dr P he said it would probly take a while to make a difference as I have been ill for 2 years.So...How long did it take other people with receptor resistance using T3 to notice a change?At what dose did you start to notice a difference?Any other things I should know that might be helpful?I have s fantastic book and have dipped into it...haven't read all of it yet though. I take my dose in 2 divided doses once before getting up and once before lunch. I have increased my dose by about 12.5 roughly every week. Many thanks in advance for your comments. :)Best wishes,J
