Hi again, that is higher end TSH, the lower the better. And that is low T4, it needs to be higher end and where is the T3 #. I've followed the advice of stop the thyroid madness (STTM) people and the author of the book by the same name and own the book. I went thru 10 yrs of holy H starting back in 1991 and then finally in 2002 my D.O. called in, no labs etc, and 10 yrs of depression lifted in 4 days...he called in Armour...TODAY, all conventional thyroid "experts" will only prescribe Levo T4 thyroid support...it doesn't support most folks as I've followed so many on my path.

I have a high school friend in Pgh, so we go back MANY years and we talked about thyroid for years and she had the hardest time finding an MD who would work with NDT (natural desiccated thyroid)...she finally did, a sort of an MD friend.

If you can ever see your way to an integrative/functional MD they will work with NDT and know so much more about the thyroid symptoms vs numbers...numbers in today's modern world are guidelines but long before labs, doctors prescribed NDT by symptoms. I've studied this thyroid issue and read books since 1991 when I was about 53. Didn't finally get on NDT until about 63....lot of years of misery.
