Guest guest Posted April 15, 2010 Report Share Posted April 15, 2010 Hello all you in RT3 land Just came from the doctor, as I have an RT3 ratio of 11. when I asked the dr what we need to do to clear it, he stated, (and I quote) " You don't need to worry about RT3 because I'm giving you Armour. Since it has T3 and T4 in it, you will never have reverse T3. " Hm..... He also said he would not give me straight T3 because I had thyroid cancer..... I told him I am having hypo symptoms, and he told me it could be from being postmenopausal. I also asked him what to do for my high cortisol at night, he said, " it may be from having too much thyroid medicine. " I just thought I'd share this with you. Now, when dealing with a doctor such as this, how can I clear the RT3 on my own? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
