Guest guest Posted March 3, 2006 Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 How much HC are you taking? It sounds to me like you need MORE thyroid not less. -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV My Ebay Jewelry Store http://stores.ebay.com/valeriescrystalcreations http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 3, 2006 Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 Val, I'm taking 30 mg HC. I would really like to raise my armour and I know I sound like a broken record but I get worse when I raise my armour. I felt better at 1/2 grain but not great. It's actually a bit strange because some of my symptoms actually go away but yet I feel worse. Minor symptoms go away and are replaced by more severe symptoms. I'm at 3 grains now but I've only been there for 2 weeks, shouldn't I stay there for 4 to 5 weeks. Also my thyroid is hurting - does that mean I need more? My head is so full of pressure like it's going to explode. I'm also taking antibiotics (possible tick bite) - do you know if this plays a role, interaction between antibiotics and HC or armour? > > How much HC are you taking?

Especially your digestive system. Are you taking your Armour sublingually? That should help get thyroid past your digestive system. Any infection can be the cause of a headache. I always get headaches when my thyroid is low, so that is another hypo symptom. I just feel in my heart that you still need more thyroid as your symptoms scream hypo. -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV My Ebay Jewelry Store http://stores.ebay.com/valeriescrystalcreations http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 3, 2006 Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 Val, you've been a big help. I agree with you 100% that I still need more armour, I'm merely concerned that I am often felling worse not better. Although today is looking up. I changed my dosing. Before I was taking 2 grains am and 1 grain at bedtime - the bedtime dose was tooooo much for my adrenals, I think. Now I'm changing to a.m. only for split dosing - I hope this works. > > >>I'm also taking antibiotics (possible tick bite) - do you know if > this plays a role, interaction > between antibiotics and HC or Armour?<< > > Nothing in your body works right while on antibiotics.

Guest guest Posted March 3, 2006 Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 >>Now I'm changing to a.m. only for split dosing - I hope this works.<< This may work for you! BUT if you start getting the aches and pain at night or especially in the morning, you can just add in your next dose at bedtime. I used to wake up feeling like an ancient woman! But the bedtime dose has fixed that for me. We all need to play with timing of doses though to find out what works best for us. What was weird for me is even after I starting taking a bedtime dose, I hobbles to the bathroom every morning for the longest time.. Then one day i actually was laughing at myself as I was hunched up and gingerly making my way there, and i realized i had no more pain, it was just a habit to hobble!

LOL That is funny - I know that habit sooo well but I still need to hobble. I lean on the tub as I walk by. I hope not much longer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 3, 2006 Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 Ugh, I know that feeling. If I stay up past 10 pm, I feel like I was out drinking all night long.

If you don't mind then it really doesn't matter.~ when I wake I feel like I was out all night drinking and partying when in fact I went to bed by 8 pm and very sober.

Guest guest Posted March 4, 2006 Report Share Posted March 4, 2006 LOL , You are singing my song! I am the only person I know, who's said this same thing about feeling like I've been out drinking when I don't get my rest! I felt that way day before yesterday at work and I always ask my co worker if she went out drinking the night before, cuz I know I have 'her hangover'. lol.
