    Doing a quick Google search, there are Thyroid Blockers out there, but they are prescription medications. If you truly have hypothyroidism, symptoms are usually brittle nails, hair loss, fatigue, heart palpitations. See a Doctor.

    As far as Weight Gain, I wish I had that problem, just gotta eat and try mass gainer shakes.

    After reading all the Info above, I will consider taking T3 over T4. I was a little nervous about taking T3. I tried it for 2 weeks back in May, shortly after I got very sick, pneumonia.

    Yep there are drugs used for hyperthyroidism, and nothing I'd recommend for other purposes. No idea about the pneumonia, I'd be more inclined to think of coincidence.

    I already have a diagnosis of hypothyroidism (from autoimmune thyroiditis)

    The weight gain from thyroid dysfunction is largely a myth, invented by post-menopausal women I believe. When overt hypothyroidism is present water retention happens, but that gets flushed away on replacement therapy.
