There is growing awareness that some people do not appear to recover
their former health using the standard levothyroxine (T4) thyroid
medication and may remain with many of the symptoms of hypothyroidism
that they first went to their doctor with.
The author describes his struggle with hypothyroidism and how eventually
he regained his health using a thyroid medication called liothyronine
sodium (T3). The use of T3 finally enabled the author to make a complete
recovery from hypothyroidism, although there were many lessons that he
needed to learn about T3 in order to regain his health.
The author decided to write Recovering with T3, as there were no
useful books on hypothyroidism that covered the detailed information
needed for using T3 safely and effectively.
This book covers a vast amount of technical and practical information
relating to T3 medication and details how the author used T3 in order to
get well.
The book has a foreword by Dr. John C. Lowe, who had this to say about
the book:
"Paul Robinson has written a book chock-full of information on T3 that
is vitally important to many people. I believe that reading 'Recovering
with T3 My Journey from Hypothyroidism to Good Health Using the T3
Thyroid Hormone' will be a splendid experience for thousands of people,
whether clinicians, patients, patient advocates, or patients' loved
ones."
Recovering with T3 is a ground-breaking hypothyroidism book and
essential reading for any patient and their doctor if they are
considering the use of the T3 thyroid hormone.
The book was updated in 2018 to incorporate recent thyroid research
study findings.
Together with 'The Thyroid Patient's Manual', and 'The CT3M
Handbook', Paul's hypothyroidism books have now become a complete
series (the 'Recovering from Hypothyroidism series').
