Do you have any blood test results to share with us? Bit difficult, otherwise.

T3 isn't a weight-loss pill. You would need to know your FT3 level before taking any because too much could make you ill. It's possible that your FT3 is very low, but it dépends how low to know how much to take.

If your doctor won't test it, you could do a private test, but you would have to post a new question to know about private tests, because I Don't know anything about them, I'm afraid. Sorry.
