You're so welcome, Chloe. I take the T3-T4 combination myself, and feel it's a valuable addition, but not a major AD by itself.
Since you are discussing all these things with your doctors, what about finding out about your estrogen levels? You are very young to have low ones, but sometimes even women in their thirties do. A good article about this is from the MGH in Boston: "Efficacy of estradiol for the treatment of depressive disorders in perimenopausal women" Soares,CN et al,Arch Gen Psychiatry 2001 Jun;58(6): 529-34
You have made such terrific progress so far; we always look for your posts, and do hope to hear further good news from you- but, even if there are still ups and downs, keep posting anyway!
