Thanks. Will post back after adding transdermal magnesium and electrolytes. Then maybe trying to start slow with a T4-T3 combination low dose.

RE: Thyroid not working - Low sodium and chlorine in blood?
@Serotoninskeptic @CrumblingCookie thanks for the feedback.
I take salt to taste, and sugar is mostly orange juice, probably quite down the line in terms of total calorie intake. Regarding kidney function, blood tests show normal function, but urine is a bit dark some days (which might come from calcium supplementation). I thought low chlorine and sodium could be from metabolic disfunction at the cellular level and desregulation of levels.

Thyroid not working - Low sodium and chlorine in blood?
I am a low weight person, 68 years old, BMI 15.5 and low temperatures, cholesterol over 400. Tried to raise my temperature with thyroid (Armour, low dose) and currently supplementing with Pyrucet. If I raise my thyroid dose to more than 1/10th of a single armour pill, I get palpitations and adrenaline, and high BP, hyperthyroid symptoms, probably due to lack of energy. My blood is consistently low in sodium and chlorine, which I think might be related to low metabolic state. Does someone have any idea of how to help with this? Has anyone tried Cardenosine from Idealabs to find alternative paths to thyroid, or high-dose vit D?
Much appreciated

Cholesteatoma diagnosis - can break the cyst with systemic enzymes?
I was diagnosed with Cholesteatoma (Wikipedia: a destructive and expanding growth consisting of keratinizing squamous epithelium in the middle ear and/or mastoid process. Cholesteatomas are not cancerous as the name may suggest, but can cause significant problems because of their erosive and expansile properties.)
Cause is problems with my eustachian tube (inflammed, not pressurizing, and a cyst forms within the timpanic membrane). Turns out only solution is surgery, a mastoidectomy, but I was wondering if systemic enzymes like serrapaptase or nattokinase could help dissolving it. Problem is, this cyst forms in a vaccum, not blood getting there. Anyone has ideas of how this could be addressed without surgery? Maybe topical pregnenolone and DHEA?
