W O W! This could mean soreness after a intense workout is a temporal hypothyroid state.

No. I'm not stupid. You could make that argument about any neurotransmitter or hormone.I guess you can try overdosing on thyroid supplements and see what it does to you.
I've seen it happen on my cat. He gets to have a voracious appetite and got plump. Then all of a sudden, he loses appetite and quickly got thin. I observed loss of energy, as well as bulging thyroid glands on the neck. Not long after, he died. The night before, he was quiet, and his eyes were wide and wasn't blinking.
The next time I saw these signs on my two other cats, I gave them selenomethionine daily, and the symptoms were gone. I changed their food. I was giving them raw fish, and they were getting too much thyroid.
I don't know about people though.

I haven't, but I would expect it to happen based on "naturally" hyperthyroid people having somewhat faster relaxation. I'd guess there's quickly-diminishing-returns though, like there's a natural ceiling where increasing metabolism stops speeding things up:Have you seen any info showing that you can add thyroid hormone to a euthyroid patent and get faster relax times?

Thanks.
Could a large iron hammer work fine when performing the test on the stepfamily? Also, could the ankle test be performed on the back of the neck?
We're on the same page Dan. I just asked a question at their Kardiamobile Amazon page on whether the unit will display QTc. Will let you know their response.

It's only a problem if it causes trouble. Otherwise it is just hormones. If my testosterone was above reference range, would only care if there were some issues associated with it.I could make that argument for anything, actually.
But I may have missed something thinking that hyperthyroidism isn't a good thing. I searched Ray Peat's writings in order to disprove you and I couldn't disprove you. He would speak of doctors misdiagnosing people as hyperthyroid when they are euthyroid. He has spoken of hypothyroid as bad many times, but not a word of hyperthyroidism as bad. Is this why you believe hyperthyroidism as not bad? Or do you have other reasons for your position?
I suppose hyperthyroidism, when it surfaces, can be more easily felt and acted upon to be remedied, than hypothyroidism, which is silent and undiagnosed, or misdiagnosed with a false negative. Although hyperthyroidism can also be misdiagnosed, with a false positive though.It's only a problem if it causes trouble. Otherwise it is just hormones.

Low magnesium status is indicative of hypothyroidism. I would say it's another confirming factor. It's going to be difficult to maintain euthyroid status if adequate magnesium is not maintained.
I think where you and @Hugh Johnson are missing each other is this. RP does not say hyperthyroidism is good. He says that the vast majority of hyperthyroidism is misdiagnosed. And treating it as hyperthyroid (ie, thyroidectomy) is exactly the wrong thing to do. I don't think he has said, but he would presumably agree that actual, real, correctly diagnosed hyperthyroidism is bad. But also much, much rarer than diagnoses indicate.I suppose hyperthyroidism, when it surfaces, can be more easily felt and acted upon to be remedied, than hypothyroidism, which is silent and undiagnosed, or misdiagnosed with a false negative.

He said himself that if he takes too much thyroid he gets out of breath too easily. In some of the podcasts he also talked about optimal pulse rates correlated with some stuff, like maybe the ability to learn or pass tests for students.I think where you and @Hugh Johnson are missing each other is this.
