Your experience sounds like what I am going through. Increasing T4 and T3 and feeling worse and worse. I have basically no thyroid (Hashi's) and used to do well on WP (1 grain x 3/day) before the product went south. I've been in a health spiral since mid-2019. Chronic URI since 12/2019. I actually think I'll be dead in less than a year given how I feel. Looking into adrenal cortex and support…I totally agree. My thyroid function seemed fine "on paper" but because of ongoing fatigue and some evidence of myxedema my naturopath suggested a low dose of NDT. At first things were ok but after a month I started to tank so I thought the answer was to progressively raise the dose. That was pretty much a disaster. By the end I thought I was dying.
Have you ever heard of a product called Vital Adapt? I know that Ray is not a fan of supplements so suggesting it here might be sacrilege but that stuff is the number one thing that has turned my condition around. It's a tincture that is comprised of adaptogenic herbs and reishi mushroom, licorice... Their herbs support adrenal and thyroid. I'm super sensitive to everything, even b vitamins, but this I can take and it's very effective. I think the brand is Natura? Anyway, it comes in pill and tincture form. I don't believe my doctor would recommend it unless it was a superior product. I have used it off an on for about 3 years. I think you can still find it on Amazon and it gets high reviews. Personally, it's the only thing that worked for me. The NDT was a good experiment though, I'd would always wonder if I hadn't tried it.
