Guest guest Posted February 8, 2010 Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 Some background Info.. I was diagnosed with thyroid cancer last year.. had a complete thyroidectomy in march 09. Since then Ive been on a roller coaster. I saw many Drs...with no relief of hypo symptoms. In July of 09 I saw a dr at the Holtorf clinic in California.. I was diagnosed with reverse t3 and was put on t3 meds only. Well I thought I was on the road to recovery.. but here it is 7 months later and I still have the same symptoms of being hypo.. I feel like a slug all day. No energy, and all the other fun symptoms. The Dr in California was very expensive and the Dr insisted on my taking supplements which I felt were not helping to clear anything except my bank account. I saw another Dr because I cant afford the California Dr anymore and the new Dr said I am on too high a dose of the t3 meds (150mg) and wants to slowly reduce my t3 down to 25mg and then start me on t4. What? I am having hypo symptoms now and this Dr wants to lower my t3 meds. I dont get it. I am so confused and I really need help understanding all this.
