Guest guest Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 Hi Everyone, I was hoping to get some outside insight regarding medications... I was on Synthroid for over a year. While I was told my labs were " normal " I was still experiencing all of the symptoms that I always had-extreme fatigue, weight gain(70lbs in 1 yr!!), brain fog/memory loss, etc.. I brought up the subject of changing my medication several times..but was dismissed. Soo, I found another Dr. She's much more receptive of thinking outside of the box. She switched me to cytomel. I've been on it 3 months and don't feel one bit better. Most days it takes all my energy to get up in the morning. Oh, and I'm still gaining weight! In conclusion, I've been on a T3 and a T4-both synthetic. My question is: I've been reading online experiences where when people were in my same position they tried going on Armour. Does this sound like something I should try? Is there anyone out there who has tried the sythetic med and is now on Armour or something like it? What is your experience?
