Val..have you read the thyroid paradox by Jame K. Rone...I would be interested

in your take...he makes a compelling case for the body needing T4 hormone. He

agrees that people with surgically removed thyroids or thyroids destroyed by

Hashis seem to benefit the most from T3 only therapy. Good book for your

collection...knowledgable poster on the Graves board posted the following:

I've read those theories about the reverse T3, and what I found is that you can

indeed have high RT3, but it won't take up the receptors if there is ample T3

and T4 in the blood. So all you have to do is make sure BOTH of those hormones

(T4/T3) are in a good normal range.

If you still don't feel well after many weeks of normal T4/T3, then it's

possible you have antibodies against thyroid hormone, or perhaps a mutation of

the TSH receptor. (See more on this below).

One study I read was to see if RT3 could actually block true T3 - and the

restult: it didn't. It was too weak to interfere with the free T4 and T3. The

only time it would bind was when the patient had T4/T3 levels that were too low.

The obvious solution? Give them LT3 or LT4 replacement and get those levels up

-- whichever was needed. That stopped the RT3 from binding to the hormone

receptors, and the patient was no longer in a hyPO state.
