Some people might find this of interest. I did. healthrising.org/blog/2024/...

Thank you....though " Hypothyroidism of the muscle" is an odd term....surely....the cells in the muscle.

[Katherine1234 in reply to DippyDame]

Yes does seem a strange term. I suspect it is because we have cells everywhere and in abundance in muscle. I might have named it a bit different

[DippyDame in reply to Katherine1234]

Cellular hypothyroidism is the correct term.

[Katherine1234]

I am going to look that up DippyDame, thank you.

[DippyDame in reply to Katherine1234]

You're welcome.

My mind is being blown away by what I am reading at the moment. Could also explain why my gallbladder, gallstones, toxic bile sludge went away as soon as I went on T3. Here is a good article DippyDame palomahealth.com/learn/cell...

[DippyDame in reply to Katherine1234]

Yes....I'm now convinced, after much reading, that my many symptoms/ illnesses right from childhood all came from low ( cellular) T3.

I also think it's something I've inherited from my maternal family

I've just posted the article by Mark Doyle....along with another T3 rant!!

Thank you for the palomahealth link

Happy digging!!

Just going to find what you posted DippyDame. Like you, it would explain a lot of mine too, and from childhood. I was reading we inherit all our mitochondria and such from our maternal side.

[DippyDame in reply to Katherine1234]

That's v interesting re mitochondria etc....thank you. More research required!

[Katherine1234 in reply to DippyDame]

DippyDame have you seen this short video clip on youtube. This doctor is explaining it very well. youtube.com/watch?v=NutHWhT...(Not working as expected?)

[DippyDame in reply to Katherine1234]

Gosh, that was hard going....but thanks for posting....interesting.

It's a miracle that any of us manage to fully function when so many things can/ do go wrong!!!

Hi Katherine1234, thank you very much for posting these articles. I was wondering if you have ever done the Organic Acids test which Marek Doyle claims will test for cellular hypothyroidism?

[Katherine1234 in reply to Carrie234]

I have not had that done Carrie not sure if you can get that test in the UK

[Carrie234 in reply to Katherine1234]

Thank you, much appreciated. I had a look and there is the organic acids test available now in the UK, I've no idea if it's good though.

I missed this. It’s excellent. Thanks to Carrie234 for raising the post again too, allowing me to see it.

So very annoying that we won’t likely see this happening mainstream for the foreseeable future. Still it’s very useful information for anyone considering self medication due to health services remaining entirely useless re: the issue of T3.
