Does this
>ThyroTest(TM), a new rapid hypothyroid diagnostic screening device<
detect when someone is unable to sufficiently convert T4 to T3?
detect when someone converts T4 to too much Reverse T3 ?
detect when there are not enough T3 molecules getting into all the cells
throughout the body when and where they are needed?
It really doesn't matter how much TSH we do or don't have and how much T4
we have if the cells, organs, systems of the body can't get the normal T3
they need and we still have symptoms of being hypothyroid with organ and
system deficiencies and failures (diseases). That's why I am asking.
The possible advantage of such a device would be in overcrowded public
clinics for the poor where the sources of their diseases might be otherwise
missed.
The disadvantage is that if all causes of hypothyroid symptoms are not
detected, doctors will dismiss anything that is not easy to diagnose
and will continue to cause great harm as a result of not listening to
their patients.
