The above link takes you to your post of two years ago and the discussion that took place. I answered at that time - so am wondering how you are doing with supplementing and improving your levels of important nutrients. T3 will not work well if all those levels are still bumping along the bottom.

I am not being negative - I am a T3 fan - but feel the basics must be addressed before trying - as you could otherwise be very disappointed.

When were you last tested? Because if you stop supplementing, levels can quickly drop again.

Also do you know if you have Hashimoto's (high antibodies) if so have you tried changing to gluten free diet

So if you have any recent tests for these and recent Thyroid test results add them to this post. If you need to get them done, come back and write a new post. Always get the full results, including ranges (figures in brackets)

If GP won't test, see Thyroid Uk for where to get done privately

Medichecks Thyroid plus ultravit or Blue Horizon plus 11 are the most popular- both offer same tests & cost £99, just different companies
