Blog

This is a new guest blog post that I wrote for the Hypothyroid Mom website and Facebook page in the USA.

It is called:  "The Focus on Thyroid Lab Test Results is Failing Patients"

Here is the link:

I hope you enjoy it.

Best wishes,

I started a new Facebook group a while ago called The Thyroid Patient's Manual. The purpose of the group is to provide a safe environment for members to ask questions about my three books ('Recovering with T3', 'The CT3M Handbook' and 'The Thyroid Patient's Manual').

I have now started doing Live Q&A Video Broadcasts on Facebook within The Thyroid Patient's Manual group. These are likely to be monthly.

CT3M stands for Circadian T3 Method.

I created this approach 20-years ago, in order to raise my cortisol from a desperately low level to a healthy level.

It requires no use of hydrocortisone or adrenal glandulars to do this - just the use of T3 thyroid medication (liothyronine). For some people it can also work with natural desiccated thyroid (NDT).

Let me explain how I came to create (or discover) the Circadian T3 Method (CT3M).

I cut this information from part of a previous blog as I thought it would be useful when referring to the history of thyroid treatment. 

The history of thyroid treatment is interesting as it makes it so clear why we are in the mess that we currently are in with lab test driven treatment, and no T3 being prescribed when it is required

Some History Prior to the 1970s

Synthetic T4 (Synthroid, Levothyroxine) was first introduced in the 1950s. Current thyroid lab tests (TSH, and the other thyroid labs) were invented in the 1970s.
