I've just put up a new blog post, which contains an overview of 'Recovering with T3' and CT3M in both English and Swedish. It it probably the best overview I've written so far and should be helpful to those who would like and introduction to my work.
I bought your book and am feeling a lot better following your idea of taking thyroid meds early, (just before the circadian peak of T3 in people without thyroid disorders) ie ~ 5am, 4 hours before I wake up.
Personally though, after trying different combinations, I have discovered that I need a big chunk of my thyroid meds in the form of Levo. I think my current dose is right for me: 100 mcg Levo and 10mcg T3.
What I am getting at is basically that it is useful to know about the circadian rhythm and interconnections with eg adrenal output, which you cover in your book, but that not everyone will do well on T3 alone. A combination of your method with other things might be best for some.
Thanks again for your effort and amazing contribution to thyroid knowledge and health.
I wrote the book to provide a sound documented method and background information for those people who need to use T3. I have ALWAYS said that T3 only is just one of the treatments. Some people do well on natural desiccated thyroid only, some on T4/T3, even a few are well on synthetic T4 only. So, although I believe that with effort T3 can be made to work quite well for most people T3 remains the most difficult thyroid treatment to use correctly. Where possible T4, T4/T3 or NDT should be used.
I fully support your intelligent use of T4/T3 and many people do indeed use the CT3M method described in RWT3 in the way you are doing so or with NDT or NDT combined with T3.
Thank you for your feedback Koala - I appreciate it!

There should be a green tab somewhere on your screen with 'feedback' written in white..!? For me it is on the right hand side, but I understand for people with 'eye'-type gadgets it can appear in the middle..!?
