well said.
What is going "haywire" with your thyroid, what do you mean by that, high numbers? Low numbers?? Just curious.
I am on desicated thyroid meds and they have worked great for me.

As of my last test (Nov 23, 2012), my TSH was 10.160 (High) and my T3 was 1.9 (Low) and T4 was 1.11 (Normal). That was the first time my T3 was abnormal after my total thyroid surgery in 2007. It was then Cytomel was added to Synthroid. I had several occasions when my TSH was high but it would normalize after adjusting the Synthroid. I read in one of the posts about the slow release Cytomel. In fact, Mrs.D suggested some valuable sites to read. I mentioned this to my endoc and he told me to give his prescription some time before considering the compounded formula. Well, my next test will be mid Jan. I hope my numbers will be okay.
Thanks for asking.
