3 LONG years still not balanced from complete thyroidectomy for cancer. Currently on T4 generic levothyroxine 125 mg still have fatigue, heart palps, dry skin, hair falling out, 70 pound weight gain. Just had labs yesterday 2000 mg Vitamin D that level came up from 22. Have tried T3 10 mg but makes heart race and palps increase. Kidney function is to Stage 3A. Hired NEW endocrinoligist this makes the third doctor. I'm losing faith they can help. Here are my new labs.

You might want to run a 24 hour adrenal tests w/DHEA . Any T3/NDT can unmask adrenal insufficiencies make it difficult to raise T3/NDT . Meanwhile I would suggest Vitamin "C" , B-12/folate Iron If you test low (ferritin) , B-Complex , Selenium .
