> Mitch, Pfinstegg,
> Thank you both for the info on T3 and 4. Thanks Mitch for the link. But my pdoc wrote back to me after reading the NEJM article:"The support in the psychiatric literature is for the

But I am trying to have an open mind, and hopefully it will help my rapid cycling. I' ll keep you posted. You guys have been great! Thanks so much
> ChloeJust the T3? I would still try it, Chloe. She probably knows how med sensitive you are and won't give you but a small dose to see how you do. I think with T3 only you will need to take it 3-4x daily. That means it will wash out fast.
