I am brand new to this site and to use of computers, but more than that, I am brand new to feeling SO much better than I have in at least 8 years. I finally found a lovely endocrinologist who actually listens and treats me with respect and listens. And she heard my plea to please, please, please consider putting me on some medication for the hypothyroidism I have had since I was 13 years old and which never seems to EVER show up in "normal" blood checks. She ordered some blood tests for something called "T3" and a whole bunch of others tests as well. As a result, in addition to my usual small tiny dosage of Levoxyl (which I've been taking daily despite at least three doctors telling me I don't need even that), I am adding a new (to me) med called T3 and it's been less than a month and I am truly beginning to get back the life I did have years ago but that I do believe was stolen from me, inadvertently, by doctors who just don't listen. I am no longer "falling asleep in my soup," no longer depressed and dragging myself around and I am in far better spirits than in years. And mostly, I am grateful, so very very grateful to God first and then to you folks and then to my current endocrinologist. I pray (literally) for anyone who is suffering through the consequences of doctors who do not "get it" and "humor" us as if we were imagining that our hair was indeed falling out and our fingernails were truly as thin as they are and our spirits are so low we can barely reach up from the floorboards and we are either freezing or roasting and I won't even touch what it does to one's sex drive. (smile). I am no longer married so it doesn't effect my life now, but I just want to encourage anyone out there to keep on trying until you find a doctor who will listen. God bless! Audrey

Hello, I have been taking T3 since May of this year. I have had good results with the WTS T3 Therapy. Much more consistent energy and temperature stabilization. I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's thyroiditis 11 years ago. Like many others I took Synthroid for a few years with ok results. Finally, about 4-5 years ago I realized that I did not feel well and took myself off of the Synthroid. I decided I could feel bad with or without taking medicines. For a few years I did feel better. One year ago I was involved in a car accident (rear-ended from behind twice which caused a whiplash injury and necessitated surgery to my R shoulder). I had the surgery in March of this year. About 5-6 weeks after surgery my body just couldn't seem to keep functioning normally in respect to energy and body temp regulation. I was having temps averaging 97.6 over the 24 hour period. I went to my doctor to see if I could get workup again on the thyroid. The anti-thyroid antibodies were 50% increased over my last tests about 3 years ago. I asked her if she would be willing to let me try the T3 therapy rather than Synthroid. Knowing that I am an RN and had read and thoroughly studied the instructions she agreed to a trial. I have had very good response to the T3 therapy with good regulation of the body temps and much more consistent energy than before. I decided to try ThyroCare for thyroid support. Weight has been another big struggle. Prior to my thyroid problem I was never more then 10-15 pounds from ideal weight. For at least the last 3-5 years I have been at least 50+ pounds above desired. After being on the T3 and exercising aerobically 45 min 3 times per week no weight loss. Only in the past few weeks since I changed to a 6 meal a day with 6 very small meals my body has finally dropped 10 pounds. This is extremely exciting- as no matter how I tried before nothing came off no matter how well I tried to eat. I hope this is just the beginning of great things to come. I now am looking forward to continuing good health along with my diet, exercise, T3 and herbals. Thank you so much for making these products and great information available to those of us who are willing to take time and effort to finds answers to help to improve our health. Sincerely, Laura Moreno Valley, CA

After a week on Synthroid with such small improvement, I called my nurse practitioner who in turn called a compounding pharmacist. I am now taking T3 as well as Synthroid and am so much improved! For over 10 years, I have had aggravating symptoms such as irregular menstrual cycles which were always treated with, "Kim, let's put you back on the Pill." I finally came to the conclusion that there had to be a reason for my body to be in such a state of malfunction. It was only after finding your website when researching fluid retention that I believed I had finally found a possible cause for symptoms such as: easy weight gain, fluid retention, thinning hair, heart palpatations, irritability and the list goes on. When I checked my temperature as advised by Dr. Wilson's website, I was amazed. For years, I would question doctors as to why my temp was low and I got the routine, "Oh, a lot of people have low temps." Well, during my track of my body temperature, there were times mine didn't even register to 96 degrees. One day in particular, it was way below 96. Naturally, I became even more concerned. Thank goodness I am feeling better. While I'm not quite 100%, I feel that I may be on my way, God willing. I'm doing everything I can to get word out about Wilson's Syndrome. One of my mother's friends was met with contempt by her doctor's nurse when she questioned her about T3 therapy. She's now in the process of finding another doctor. Please tell Dr. Wilson to keep up the good work and again, THANK YOU. Kim D.

I'm a 41 year old female. My body temp is usually around 97 and I have very high blood pressure usually around 155/108. I've just started taking blood pressure medicine about a month ago but it's not working. I see the doc again in a couple days but my question is how can I have high BP with a low body temp? Is that normal? I also have heart palpitations accompanied by coughing.

Yes, the complaints you mention can all be explained by a low body temperature. Many patients with high blood pressure and low temperatures are able to reduce or eliminate their blood pressure medicines once their body temperatures are normalized. Similarly, patients with low temperatures can tend to have anxiety and panic attacks. You describe heart palpitations accompanied by coughing. I wouldn't be surprised if you are also experiencing a tendency toward anxiety and panic attacks.
One possible explanation for these complaints is that when the body temperature drops, the vascular tone in the body decreases. This can sometimes result in a tendency towards low blood pressure. But that tendency can be detected by the body (by pressure receptors in the neck) resulting in compensatory release of adrenaline. This compensation with adrenaline might contribute to high blood pressure, anxiety, panic attacks, increased heart rate and palpitations. Sometimes people with low temperatures describe a sensation that feels like someone is pressing a thumb against their throat, some people with low temperatures can experience asthma, both of which might contribute to coughing.
Whatever the explanation, low temperatures are enough to explain the complaints you mentioned. You might respond well to the WT3 protocol.
Hope that helps,
Denis Wilson, MD

What affect, if any, do the adrenal glands have on the pituitary and thyroid gland system as it relates to: -- a) physical energy; b) function of the thyroid; and c) treatment of Wilson's Temperature Syndrome using the WT3 therapy? Some medical folks seem to stress that it is more imporant to balance all hormone systems to restore normal body temperatures and achieve a feeling of wellness. Herb P. - Omaha, NE.

Dear Herb,
The endocrine system is definitely an inter-related system. Certainly the adrenal system can affect the thyroid system and the thyroid system can affect the adrenal system and they can both affect blood sugar metabolism and so on. However, just because the various parts of the endocrine system can affect one another doesn't necessarily mean that they all need to be treated. Why? Because they can affect one another. :-)
For example, let's say a person tripped and fell in the mud and was having a hard time getting out. We could help that person out by pulling on his left arm. There's a good chance that as we gently pull on his arm, his whole body will come with it. Why? Because his arm is part of his body and the parts of his body are all interconnected. If we are careful, more than likely his arm will not come off and hopefully he will soon be free of the mud.
In some situations (but not all) it might be helpful to pull on his right arm as well.
Did this man have left arm disease or right arm disease? No, there was nothing wrong with his arms. He was stuck in the mud and we pulled on his arms to help him out.
So it may be with thyroid and adrenal treatment. Many times thyroid treatment is enough to get patients feeling better. Sometimes adrenal treatment alone is enough to get patients feeling better. Sometimes adrenal treatment and thyroid treatment in concert is very helpful as well. However, there is a potential difficulty as well. Let's say we were pulling on his left arm and pushing on his right arm. Though we might think it ideal to address both his arms at the same time, it may not be if what we are doing is at odds with itself.
That is one benefit of thyroid treatment. There is a very handy direction: normalizing the body temperature. That's a good place to start and may be all the help that's needed, but certainly, adrenal support can be very important in some circumstances.
Warmly,
Denis Wilson, MD

How can I get my doctor to listen to me about Wilson's Temperature Syndrome? I feel like I have so many problems and he can't find anything wrong in the blood work but I have been checking my temperature four times a day for a month now and it has been below 97 almost every time. How can I get him to listen to me after all this time and testing? I am in dire straits. Thank you.

You can say, "This really sounds like me, would you be willing to work with me on it?" This Patient Guide explains why this is a really good way to ask. You can give him this link to the Doctor's Manual. You can give him this CD. You can give him 800-420-5801 which he can call to get technical support on individual cases. And of course, if all else fails, you can go to a doctor on the WTS Physician List. Best wishes, Denis Wilson, MD
