Thanks Dollyvee,
I know all this research has taken you quite some time. Yes I am looking at the right ranges and I'm very aware of how they're not always what our docs tell us they should be. I am looking into having another go with a functional doctor. As I explained to you the last one I spoke to told me that I shouldn't waste my money as my knowledge and the way I implemented that was the ideal for me.
Yes it's sad that there are so many of us on here. I'm glad the thread I started helped in a small way. I hope it's helped others that have read it too. Especially as you've been so generous sharing your research and your experiences.
Bermuda: I agree that your approach is a great way to go. I try to take an approach whereby I attempt to educate docs by being open about my drug sensitivities and how that has exacerbated my CPTSD, but they don't all react well. Although it is getting better.
The work I did with my T helped lots with that as I was able to drop the toxic shame which stood in the way of me telling others about it.
Great discussion. Thanks
