Guest guest Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 My T3 was in range too, but the RT3 was about 200 which means that I wasn't getting enough " active " T3 ergo Hypo symptoms with everything in range. Fatigue doc says RT3 should be below 100. I tried Armour and liked it, but rt3 went too high again, meaning I wasn't converting to the active t3. So, new regime is 50 mg straight T3, and 2 grains of armour. If your still feeling tired, your doc should continue to raise your armour (i believe) every 2 weeks to get to right dose.

The doctor is a Chronic fatigue doctor in Torrence http://www.hormoneandlongevitycenter.com/ Check out the website and click the " thyroid " button on the left side, there is some info on reverse t3 and " normal " levels with still being hypo.

I wish there was something like that here on the east coast. Might even be worth a trip out there. What do you think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 15, 2008 Report Share Posted October 15, 2008 There actually are some centers on the east coast, here's the link http://www.fibroandfatigue.com/center_locations.php#saltlake Scroll down the the very bottom for the locations, there are locations at philidelphia, pittsburg, nowrwalk. The Holtorf center i go to is affliated with these guys and I do buy some supps from their website. If you do decide to go, do call ahead and talk to drs to see if he/she is right for you. The one I go to is great for everything EXCEPT heavy metal poisoning. Others in the practice are better with the metals, but they do IV chelation so its a moot point.
