Hi Melinda,

What are you taking for your thyroid?

I'm so glad that you're feeling better!!!!!

Love, Liz

Kiki, honestly, you sound just like how I've felt. I'm beginning to gain more

energy now with my thyroid medication (been on it a week and a half) along with

the other hormones. I still drag through some days, though, so I know my levels

are not totally right just yet.

Please keep me posted on things that are helping you. Maybe they would be good

for me, too.

Love,

Oh that's great Melinda... Right now I need to go the sup route and it's

helping SOOOOO much... A small start to healing, but a start... I refuse to

see a Dr that won't do the tests I want and KNOW I NEED! They work for me,

they aren't the gods {small letters on purpose} some think they are... The

Armour should really give you such good relief from your symptoms... I've done

so much reading on all this... It seems as soon as I get done with hours and

hours of research, on one thing, something else decides to rear it's ugly

head...LOL I'm really happy for you...

Love you,

Kiki

My doctor put me on Armour. I'm so glad I finally found someone who did more

than just the standard TSH test. She did 4 different tests related to thyroid

and said that I was low on T3 and T4. It didn't show me being low on the TSH

test. Go figure! I'll fill you in later on everything else - - oh my goodness,

there's more! But overall, I'm feeling better, and this whole thing explains a

lot. Thank you for asking, Sweet Liz.

Love you,

Thank you, Kiki. I knew I could count on my friends here for support (I'm so

grateful for that!). I agree about the doctors. I'm so glad I finally found

one who would really listen. I just wasn't sure what I needed or where to

start, otherwise I would be on the purely *supplement* route, too. I think

that's almost always better. I'm still fighting overwhelming fatigue at times,

but I do see a big improvement.

I hope you're doing better. Please keep us posted - - we can at least pray, you

know, especially if you tell us how we need to pray for you.

Love,

Melinda

This is really an interesting conversation. I've been on and off Armour for

about 2 years. I have succesfully self-medicated for all that time. I can tell

when my thyroid is out of wack and whether I need to up or lower my dose. I've

been comfortably at 3 grains now for a few months, but sometimes I need 4 and

sometimes I'm doing fine on 2. I'm amazed at the stamina I have from it. I

have especially noticed the ability to run for longer periods of time and I am

totally convinced it is the Armour.

Oh, good, well maybe I can hope to feel MUCH better, then. I'm just on one

grain right now, and I'm having more blood work in a couple of weeks. The

doctor said we'll adjust my doses of it and the hormones as needed at that time.

Anything else I should know? Any and all advice is greatly appreciated!!! *g*

Jenni,

Are you able to order yours online without a script??? If so TELL MEEEEE

WHERE!!! LOL I'm not holingmy breath tho, as I know it's a script thing...

Love ya,

[Guest guest]

You said that right Bonnie!!!

Add to that the drug companies that decided they weren't making enough money

so they UPPED the cost... Even with a low co-pay, it can be more that that!

Grrrrrrrrrr

PEOPLE UNITE and fight this!! Wouldn't that be nice...

Love ya,

Kiki

[Guest guest]

Jenni,

No, I was never told to take it under my tongue. Do you let it dissolve? Does

it dissolve? The only thing I hate about taking Armour is they stink

terrilbly!!

[Guest guest]

Melinda,

I have been on it for about 6 years. I was feeling that super tired foggy

feeling that I just couldn't shake. My eyelashes were falling out quickly too.

This is a big thing for me because I have always had long, thick eyelashes. My

voice also gets really gravelling sounding and deeper than normal. I was

getting very cold. Hmmmm...........I can't think of any more things but I know

there

were more.

For the most part it is better but I have times where I feel it drops. I have

to be careful to eat very little food with soy in it because it makes my

thyroid crash over night. Seriously!!!

Reflexology has helped more than anything. I actually have lowered my dose

since doing Reflexology so it seems like my body is actually kicking in a bit

with producing more hormone for me.

I don't know how many grains I take. How do you know that? Mine just goes by

mg. dosages.

Take care,

[Guest guest]

Jenni,

How do you test and buy Armour online? I didn't even know that was possible.

[Guest guest]

Jenni,

Maybe I will try this once the morning sickness passes. It could make it

worse right now. LOL

[Guest guest]

,

I can't imagine life without Armour! It works so well! Did your doctor tell

you to take it under the tongue? It absorbs better. I always take mine that

way. There is a great site for thyroid....I'll have to get the link. A dear

friend of mine runs it. Here name is ....her and (who I've never had

the pleasure of meeting or talking to but seems like such a sweety) have been

doing this on their own for years trying to educate the public and give helpful

info. I think their site is thyrophoenix.com but I'll have to check.

warmly,

Um...can we say it's an " acquired " taste ROFL It does stink. I started taking

the generic and it doesn't dissolve as well as the actual Armour...but it works

just as well.

Connie,

Armour is a natural thyroid product. Often times when you get older your

thyroid can be at the root of a myriad of problems....low adrenal too. I order

mine online, but if you get a decent doctor they will test you for more than

just your tsh. They will also check your t-3 and t-4 which is really important.

Armour is actually the " thyroid of choice " by most people on the medication.

Many people find that the synthetic versions of thyroid just don't do the job.

My 30 year old daughter has low thyroid and has had since she was 16

years, she is on synthroid now but they can never seem to get her dosage

correct,,,,is that something that would replace it or supplement it?
