Hey there again :

I believe the reason for your poor conversion is because you had RAI thyroid ablation and you neeed to be prescribed a little T3 - Liothyronine to rebalabce your T3/T4 thyroid hormones.

I know nothing of this medication but a quick look makes me ask - can you use a topical ointment instead - and I'm probably now showing my ignorance.
