It has a big IF, and T3 only is further discouraged by the mention above that the reduction of TSH by T4 is beneficial.

j. said:In that quote Peat says that T3 alone OR THE COMBINATION is more effective. You make it sound like he left the second part.
ilovethesea said:Also, I understand you are reluctant to take any T4 because of liver issues but how do you know you have any? Did you have a diagnosis or what are your symptoms?
iLoveSugar said:I don't know if I have any liver issues, but with long lasting health issues, I would be hard pressed to say I don't. If there is one thing I definitely learned 'Peating', it's that lab tests are rarely reliable.
iLoveSugar said:I will go back to using my Cynoplus more often.
My symptom list is awfully long. Mostly though, severe fatigue, body pain/weakness, bowel issues (that have improved lately), neck stiffness, back pain, feet pain.

This. I used to think my cold extremities were due to "circulation" too but no, thyroid was the only thing that worked - and it *really* works.
iLoveSugar said:I have been using cytomel, up to 30 mcg daily, for many months, and it never warms me up. Also, NO food, salt, sugar, etc, seems to warm them up. They are ALWAYS. 100%. Frozen! My hands, about 80% of the time. Even socks don't warm up my feet.
Why don't you try Cynoplus? Also, do you measure your body temperature and pulse?
Thanks so much for the reply. I'm currently googling all kinds of info about ALS since I have had this uncontrollable wrist twitching/hand weakness for the past day or so. Agh!
I know we are all different, but what amount/how often proved to be the trick for you? The reason I only take cytomel, is because during our email conversation, Ray has continually said that T3 alone is better for now since the T4 will not work if any liver issues are present. Pretty much, T3 will guarantee to work...
I have taken many intrevals of 4-6 mcg, and noticed no improvement.
