But it should be in a public place, and someone should be pointing me at it while calling me a moron.
You’re at LW which is not inhabited by a large number of doctors or biomedical PhDs :-) I don’t know the right places for you to go to, but watering holes for medical geeks must exist. LW is not it, though.
I’ve been digging through it for the last three months. And I can’t find what I’m looking for. That’s why I’m asking for help. The author of Tired Thyroid has obviously been digging through it for years.
Evidence against my idea! Firstly I was looking for reasons to believe that the replacement of clinical diagnosis by the TSH test in the early 70s was done carefully.
Now I’m looking for any attempt that has ever been made to refute the claims of Broda Barnes, or to investigate why there should be ‘insulin resistance’, but not resistance to other hormones.
As far as I can tell, there aren’t any. They’ve just assumed their stupid TSH test to be gospel, despite massive patient complaints, and ignored a seventy year old tradition of treatment that appears to work really well, and that seems to be working really well on me.

Or you can start digging through PubMed X-)
