I know here many peoples are absolutely sure that rt3 do nothing..
But there are a lots of stories and experiences from people who have had high rt3 and was good ONLY CLEARING IT WITH T3, many of these report the needed to lower their t3 after clearing rt3.
HENCE, I AM A BIT CONFUSED ABOUT, THERE ARE DOCTORS WHO BELIEVES IN THE ROLE OF RT3 - THAT SLOWDOWNS METABOLISM - AND WHO NOT.
Rt3 has his own receptor in citoplasma does not bind t3 receptors, but this doesn't mean it cannot slowdown metabolism....
So, i want to eat experience, feedback, stories from people about.
Not interested in opinion from people who says rt3 do nothing because their opinions.
I need scientific facts, with bibliography and studies about, or personal experiences.
*****
I read about peoples who cleared rt3 with 50 or 75 or 125mcg t3.
Wich was your experience?
Thank you.
P. S there are groups like rt3-adrenals, t3 support on fb, adrenal thyroid care, who speak about.. And they are sure about the negative effect of high rt3.
Also Paul Robinson in his book gives explanation about, and he says the same about rt3.
Honestly i don't think they are all wrong, and only few peoples on this group are right!.
But i am open mind... So.. I ear and evaluate all opinions if logical and supported by strong evidences.

As far as I know and I'm not medically qualified is that it is the process of levothyroxine . i.e.T4 converts to RT3 and then into T2. T4 is an inactive hormone and has to convert to the Active thyroid hormone T3 . It is T3 that our receptor cells need.
"T4 conversion to T3 and rT3: After its release from the thyroid gland, T4 is converted to T3, which is an active thyroid hormone, or to rT3, which is considered an inactive form. The rate and ratio of T4 conversion to either T3 or rT3 depend on the body's metabolic needs.
How can you say you have an open mind when you have already decided on your point of view

You’ve asked the largely non-medically qualified members of this forum for their understanding of scientific papers, which is naturally then going to result in their opinion. If, as you point out in your ordinal post, doctors can’t agree, doesn’t that mean they have different opinions as well?
If you are looking for a single truth then I think you will be searching in vain. Everything you see is a perspective, everything you hear/read is an opinion.
I have to say, sadly, i don't receive much useful feedback from this group.
Which prompts the question: why do you keep coming back here and asking for opinions? You have made 6 threads on this forum in the last 10 months and you keep asking the same thing, you keep getting the same answers and you dispute them every time. You've even disagreed with member Diogenes in this thread
Diogenes - Dr John Midgeley - information about him can be found on this page (3rd one down) on ThyroidUK's main website which gives information about all their advisors
So, i ask to the people to show me these papers or tell me their personal understand.
But i read just opinions 😉.
What's the difference? People are not likely to form an opinion without having read up on the subject, are they? We're not as stupid as you seem to think we are.
And why do you always have to be so rude? Do you think that insulting people will get you better answers? No, it won't. It will just put people's backs up and preclude all discussion. Although, it's not discussion you want, is it. You just want people to agree with you. I'm honestly beginning to wonder if you're not some kind of troll.
Troll??? 😳Really? If someone ask the papers o studies about your opinion you think he is a troll?
MY NAME IS DAVIDE CARACAPPA AND YOU CAN SEE MY FB AND INSTAGRAM PROFILE!!!
Also i want to discuss with propel who give their personal experience (useful for me) or who speaks because papers and studies, if not.... I can change my opinion easily, because when i create an opinion i try to study and understand, don't just believe to people.
I am not rude, but i admit i become nervous when read not supported facts from people.
Why i continue to write? Be user hope to speak with people who cna give me important feedback.
If someone ask the papers o studies about your opinion you think he is a troll?
Of course not. That's not the point. The point is you keep asking the same questions over and over again, get the same answers, argue with people and upset them, and have a very difficult attitude.
I do understand what you want, but surely you must have understood by now that you're not going to get it. This is… what? your 7th post on the same subject? Don't you think that if someone had the answers to your questions they would have replied by now? I would have thought it obvious by now that nobody here has the personal experience you're looking for. And you say that people on other forums have that experience, so why don't you talk to them? Or don't you believe them, either?
And, maybe you don't realise you are being rude, but you are. Very rude at times. It almost seems like you enjoy upsetting people, which is why I mentioned trolls, because that's what they do.
I've had another look through my saved articles tonight, but I cannot find what I did with the information I had on rT3. It's not that people aren't trying to help you, they are. But, we cannot tell you what we don't know.

Are RT3 and DI02 test really necessary for me, as the practitioner suggests? 
Does high RT3 matter on t4/t3 combo? 
Body temperature, T3 and rT3 results.
Starting T3 meds for high rT3 soon, help?
