Guest guest Posted July 2, 2010 Report Share Posted July 2, 2010 As you are on no thyroid meds you possibly have GRAVES Disease. You rT4 is too high which creates RT3 as a protective measure . Thus you have nto had the hyper symptoms commonly associated wiht Graves Disease. Your system will buckle under this as it si doing now I am sure as tyou are clinically hypothyroid with RT3 thta high. You need TSI (Thyroid Stimulating Immunoglobulins) tested as these ar the antibdies precent in Graves Disease. You may be able to do a block and replace with T3 only that MIGHT wokr for you. The other otins are RAI and thyroidectomy which are NOT good options. I woudl try T3 onyl first., It reduces your OWN TSH and T4 and replaces it with the thyroid hormone you need which is T3. http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ http://faqhelp.webs.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/RT3_T3/ http://www.thyroid-rt3.com/ http://groups.yahoo.com/group/HypoPets/ http://artisticgrooming.net/ Hello Every one.  Quick remind After total removed of the Thyroid Gland due to Papillary Mix follicular Thyroid Cancer After stopping the medication Eltroxin / Levothyroxine that I'm taking for 20 years, I had to do all body scan for thyroid tissue, I stop the Eltroxin / Levothyroxine for 2 weeks, and comeback to take the medicine, it is 9 years after stopping the Eltroxin / Levothyroxine I have side effects feel very tired and not in balance, sometimes knacks in the head.

Guest guest Posted July 2, 2010 Report Share Posted July 2, 2010 Sorry I just read further that you are takign T4 meds. SO everything I just wrote abotu Graves wil not apply exceopt one thing. You need ot stop T4 meds and switch to T3 onyl to clear out this excess RT3. You are nto convertinf T4 to T3 at all, it is all going to RT3 which is making oyu miserabel. The minute T4 gets above MIDRANGE ti causes RT3 to climb. SO as the T4 you wer taking was nto converting properly to begin wiht, y7our dose was increased adn this just increased your RT3. http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ http://faqhelp.webs.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/RT3_T3/ http://www.thyroid-rt3.com/ http://groups.yahoo.com/group/HypoPets/ http://artisticgrooming.net/ Hello Every one.  Quick remind After total removed of the Thyroid Gland due to Papillary Mix follicular Thyroid Cancer After stopping the medication Eltroxin / Levothyroxine that I'm taking for 20 years, I had to do all body scan for thyroid tissue, I stop the Eltroxin / Levothyroxine for 2 weeks, and comeback to take the medicine, it is 9 years after stopping the Eltroxin / Levothyroxine I have side effects feel very tired and not in balance, sometimes knacks in the head.
