Been there done that I do have wilsons free t3 are in the low normal range and rt3 are way above where they are suppose to be. ratio should be less then 10:1 mine is 18 to one rt3:ft3. Doing cytomel only now with cortef, testosterone replacement. waiting for dr to order time released t-3 which is more tolerable then regular cytomel . But there is a huge contraversy which one is better. I finally found a dr to understand what is going on. What ever happened knocked out wacked out my thyroid, testosterone, adrenals. For being exposed to paint for 5 days complaining of head aches, memory lost,coming off contest dieting, and eating containated sushi all in one month could, over training. Dr told me I got wacked too much at one time and too much for my system to handle so it eventually just went into stress mode and slowly shutt down due to oxidative stress. After the stress had gone thyroid never recovered and was slow that it could not even detoxify the pollutants from the enviroment or from food. So it was a viscous cycle thyroid is needed to detoxify the thebody, but the toxins where clugging the thyroid receptors and wiping out nutrients to support the thyroid as well as antioxdent system.
