The T4 needs to get converted by our liver to the active T3, and if you’re not totally healthy, which most people aren’t, you need some T3 to give your liver a boost and help it convert the T4, otherwise the T4 gets backed up snd converts to reverse T3, having a counterproductive effect and blocking even more T3 than without thyroid.Why did the T4 make her worse?
What worries me right is now is the tongue, i always have some discomfort, i dont want to get a biopsy and get told there are cancer cells or something because my body would shut down from the stress most likely. But then again, what else is there to do? i've asked around and apparently its "geographical tongue" which is basically "something we don't know but it's not worrisome".
I think coated tongue issues, like geographic tongue, usually stem from something poorly digested. Do you have any other symptoms of digestive distress? Do you take any supplements besides thyroid?
