I am waiting for these blood tests to come back and see what happens ....
I was wondering if you heard anything about Cytomel? It has to do with T 4? I am not sure ... I feel as if I am being sabotaged since weigh GAIN & increased appetite are side effects of Synthroid ...
Can you shed light on this for me please??? HELP!!!!

That's really confusing. Do you think you need a 3rd opinion? I'm sorry you're having
such a problem solving this!
