2 months on Armour- confused!

[Guest guest]

Hi All,

I posted this on the other Natural Thyroid group, and thought I should

post here again.

Here are my labs: TSH 3.00 (range .30-4.70), Ft4 1.10

(range .73-2.01), T3 1.9 (range .8-2.2). My AM adrenals on 9/1

were 14.8, and my DHEA was 111.

When I was on Levoxyl, my TSH was 1.02. I had some hypo symptoms at

that point (tired, brain fog, depression), which is

what led me to switch to Armour. But now I am regretting the

change, since I am feeling so incredibly horrible. I can't see

straight I am so tired, yet I have insomnia,

I am I am sweating, and I have gained over 10 pounds since the

switch.

My doctor wants me to increase my dose from 2 grains to 2.5 and see

how I do. I orginally started on 2 grains, but went down to 1 when I

had major hyper symptoms. I have slowly gone up to 2 grains, but feel

horribly hypo now. I've have had the adrenal argument with him, but

he says I'm fine.

I'm really at a loss. I know I didn't feel well on Levoxyl, but I

know I didn't feel this bad. Please advise...

Thanks,

Jen
