A member asked:
I'm on levothyroxine. can you tell me about t3 (liothyronine) replacement for many persistent hypothyroid symptoms even with normal tsh blood test results?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
How normal is normal: 1st things 1st. How normal is your tsh? Just below upper limit of normal? Or below 2? There are some studies suggesting that some people respond better to desiccated porcine thyroid rather than levothyroxine. However, you didn't specify your hypothyroid symptoms, many of which overlap w/taking propanolol, wellbutrin (bupropion) ; vyvanse. Talk to your doc about switching or increasing dose w/close monitoring.
