...I am taking the supplements, and they are working. I feel much better, and by that I mean less tired. But what I have noticed the most is that I am not as depressed as I was. The days seem brighter and I definitely have more energy. Thank you so much for your wonderful website and all the information you provide and most of all the SUPPLEMENTS. THEY ARE MAKING A BIG DIFFERENCE IN MY LIFE. I even had the energy to go to a baseball game and stay up til 11pm. That is the first since about 2 years. THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!!!!!! ++  

 
I am grateful for the availability of compounded T3 as a form of thyroid replacement and for the research done by Dr. Wilson. I suffered from an undiagnosed illness for 30 years which was finally diagnosed as Chronic Lyme Disease. In the late stages of my illness I developed thyroid autoimmune issues and had a total thyroidectomy. I was unable to tolerate thyroid replacement in the form of T4 and did only marginally well on Armour. The closer my TSH appoached normal, the more my symptoms of hypothyroidism (low body temperature, constipation and light headedness) increased. I probably had Wilson's Temperature Syndrome for many years caused by the stress on my endocrine system from Lyme, however my symptoms were much more pronounced after being placed on thyroid replacement that contained T4 after my thryoidectomy. Fortunately I heard about WTS from a friend and sucessfully tolerated T3 as a form of thyroid replacement. I was able to maintain a normal body temperature at 97.5 mcg. twice a day. I was not however able to decrease this dose until after I was diagnosed with Lyme disease and begain a wholistic treatment of the disease which includes antimicrocial herbs, chlelation of heavy metals and other modalities to strengthen my immune system. Over the past year of treating the Lyme I gradually needed to decrease my dose of T3. I now take 60 mcg. twice a day and am still improving. I am a patient of Dr. Nazanin Kimiai and Dr. Dietrich Klinghardt at the Comprehensive Medical Clinic in Bellevue, Washington where they have extensive experience treating patients with Lyme disease. Many of their patients with Lyme respond favorably to T3 therapy because Lyme affects liver function and/or they may suffer from WTS because of the years of stress on them from the disease. An interesting point is that as a person with no thyroid, T3 works beautifully as a total form of thyroid replacement. Another important note is that I was diagnosed with adrenal fatigue for many years as a possible cause of my symptoms but did not respond sucessfully to the many therapies I tried. Once I started taking adequate amounts of T3, my adrenal function returned to normal. In conclusion, my particular experience shows the following things: 1) T3 therapy is beneficial for Lyme patients; 2) T3 alone can be used as a form of thyroid replacement; and 3) T3 therapy can resolve adrenal fatigue.  

 
I am blessed with many allergies, so I started off very slowly with ThyroCare: one capsule daily for the first 2 weeks. I did not notice any allergic or other type response, so I moved into phase 2: three caps daily.

The first thing I noticed is feeling cheerful. Since I also have chronic clinical depression (for which I no longer take meds due to intolerable side effects) cheerful is something I am usually NOT. If I miss a day of ThyroCare, I'm not cheerful, it's as simple as that! And that is amazing!! ++

Thanks!

First let me thank you for the tremendous difference your discoveries have been in my life. I attribute all of my medical progress to you and your discovery of WT3 which I've been on for over a year, and it has totally changed my life. My question concerns Cholesterol Care. Someone in the newsletter mentioned it helped his/her cholesterol levels. Do you know what this is? Need a prescription? Over the counter? Do you recommend it? Know where one can get it over the counter?

Thanks,

Can this therapy positively affect fertility? I am 43, with 2 children ages 12 and 14. My husband and I want very much to have one more child. We tried all of 2004 without success. Finally in 2/2005 I conceived, but miscarried at 7 weeks. We are trying again, now with Clomid. My doctor did blood tests for all hormone levels, which she said were within normal ranges; this includes thyroid levels. I have many (most) of the symptoms listed on your website. The most compelling for me is hair loss, which started about 2 years ago. I never shed noticibly before that. Could WTS be a cause for my infertility? Could treatment help?

Thank you,
Michelle  

 
I am new to this web site, but have not seen anyone with dizziness as a symptom. It could also be called a "brain fog". Ever hear of this?
