Question about Patient Contract

[JaneChapple]

Hiya

Has anyone on here (but particlarly Devon) ever received a patient contract to sign because they asked for a trial of T3 medication?

Thanks

I took T3 for about ten years. No contract needed to be signed.I am in Oxfordshire. It is not readily prescribed but at the time I could not take T4 .Recently my T3 has been stopped by agreement between me and geratologist /endocrinologist .

Oh did it not work for you then, why did you agree if you could not tolerate T4?

T4 exaccebated my palpitations but T3 did not.

[JaneChapple]

So were you pressurised into stopping T3 by them if it worked for you, sorry to ask but dont see why you agreed to them stopping it if it worked?😎

[10gingercats in reply to JaneChapple]

No I was not pressurised into stopping T3!It was to do with dosing onT4 and continuing to take T3.I took advice from an endocrinologist as my TSH was erratic.

[JaneChapple in reply to 10gingercats]

Sorry just a bit confused, hope you dont mind me asking did they check your FT4 and FT3? They could have suggested T3 only which would help your heart?

Best wishes

I had my thyroid levels checked also and they put me on xymogen t3 which I believe is selenium zinc and iodine and may be able to get on line without a prescription. There was no contract

[JaneChapple]

Where are you based and what is xymogen T3 as Ive never heard of it?

Thanks

Hi

Ive looked up XmogenT3 which is just a supplement, its not a thyroid hormone such as T4 and T3. What were your levels with the ranges and what did they test? If your levels were out a supplement will not cure thyroid problem it will only suppirt it. Y need T4 or T3 for that.
