Like many others, I have struggled with my weight EVEN after being put on Synthroid medication. I have been reading alot about T3/T4 replacement and want to know exactly what to ask for when I go to the doctor next week.
My temperature is usually about 97 and despite eating about 1200 calories a day, walking 45 minutes, I am 40 lbs overweight.

I would so appreciate some guidance in what to say to the doctor next week. He is very receptive and respects my opinion.

Thanks in advance!
