Guest guest Posted February 16, 2010 Report Share Posted February 16, 2010 So if you really have ESS - getting the RT3 cleared actually "cures" you?Bonnie Sent from my iPhone Lee this is exactly why NO one (especially endos) takes seriously. He comes up with this outrageous "info" wiht no scientific basis and presents it as fact. Bad as I hate to say this as IS apioneer in RT3 issues, he fell off track in his treaments for ti. His treatments have also failed as there is literally no way to reverse hypothyridism unless it si really not classic hypo but a Syndrome that is well documented already called Euthroid Sick Syndrome. ESS is hyo caused not by low thyrid levels but by high RT3 levels. It is also not what most of us here are treating. Most people ion thi s group have ESS WITH normal hypothyroidism. Though the reasons for ou r vcersions of ESS are many and differnt the fix is geting rid of the T4 whihc lowers RT3. But then to maintina this most of us will have to remain onT3 only treatments which can be difficult to maintian that balance. AT any rate the half life of T3 is VERY much a question as it depends on who you listen to how long it remains in the body. NO SR mechanism can possibly keep anything in the system for days as at lest it can only maintina slow release into the intestines for as long as it is there whihc is usually not longer then 24-36 hours tops. -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/RT3_T3/ http://groups.yahoo.com/group/HypoPets/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 16, 2010 Report Share Posted February 16, 2010 > >I think it's a different story when T3 is made on your own body, then half >life is probably a lot longer than Cytome. Cytomel is like a jet fuel. The effective life in your body deepends how hypo you are, there seems to be some form of " buffer mechanism " between the serum and the cells so when your hypo has cleared you hold up in the gaps between tablets and don't feel peaks and troughs the way you do when hypo. T3 is a lot " calmer " to take than natural if youhave resistance as the T2 in the natural gives you an immediate kick from that. When I swapped from natural to T3 I overshot dose in the first day as I expected to feel it the way I did Natural but it was more gentle and subtle. I did have very severe resistance at the time though Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have a fully functioning HPT and HPA axis yes. Most of us seem to have something broken in that area. Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
