My girlfriends elder sister had her thyroid removed 2 years ago. I had'nt spoke with her in detail about the things assosciated with it. But, with me taking low dose T3 daily, I was curious to know what her medications were. I came to know that te doc. has put her on 150mcg T4 daily morning. But, the thing is that she has gained a lot of weight till today and is depressed, no energy etc. When scientifically I think she should be maintaining weight and should be energetic when on the medication right? I asked her is she not taking any T3? She said No and had no answer why? She had never asked doc abt it too well as she have no idea about all this obviously.
My question to you guys is: Should she be actually taking some T3 too? Is the T4 medication doing her no good? She badly wants to lose some weight and be more confident. Any idea about all this? Please share your knowledge.
