What type of thyroid medication did you have to go on ? Hi Anne, The doc I started going to a few months ago (when I felt like crap and my old endo was telling me AGAIN that I was FINE because my tests were normal and I didn't need any more medicine), was very interested in my daily low body temps. He suggested the 's Treatment for me. You can learn a lot more about it at www.wilsonsthyroidsyndrome.com. I am on a compounded T3 formula. T3 is the most active thyroid hormone but unlike Cytomel (pharmaceutical brand-name for T3 made by a US drug company) which goes into your system instantly, my medicine, pure liothyronine, is compounded with a time release agent so it goes into my bloodstream slowly over the course of 12 hours. I use a watch with an alarm to remind me to take my medicine on time and I made up a chart to keep track of my doseages, my heart rate, and my average daily temps. That's about it. in LA "We are each responsible for our own life--no other person is or even *can* be." Oprah Winfrey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
