It turns out it was too much Reverse T3 all this time!

FWIW, approx 25% of people with thyroid problems, do not convert to t3 properly.   Thus, Synthroid and other non t3 products do not squat for us.

There are a couple of good sites out on the web and forums, (similar to this one) who deal with all this t3/t4 non conversion issues.  I lucked out and found a mail group way back in 1997.  I couldn't even remember what tv shows I was watching, because my thyroid was so screwed up.

As for being our own advocate, yeah, it's annoying but I have lucked out with a doc who will work with me, and my "research".  Because we can't get d at 50,000,... it's my next script run to the docs. :)

Pick your surgery first, then your surgeon. Not the other way around.  
PS:... Potato chips should be a food group.

I'm tired of screwing with that damn health widget.

 Are you with a Yahoo group? I get a lot of info from stopthethyroidmadness.com. Stupid name, but a good site.
