Actually, I'm going to do something like this. Tell her I just had too many

symptoms on the 2 1/2 grains...so i had to stay on the 3....and that I just

don't know how those labs could be right....and then do what you say, stay off

the Armour the day of the labs.

There IS a very scientific basis for that, i.e., see my other post back to you.

Janie,

Thanks you so much for this post. I have this struggle going on inside of me

wanting to do what the doc thinks (and I do believe she has my best interests

at heart) versus what feel right to me and my body.

But last night, I was saying things like " I WILL NOT LIVE THIS WAY " ...and

that scares me. If 1/2 grain makes the difference between being happy and

feeling well mentally and physically, it's a no-brainer in my opinion.

Thanks you again. I'm printing out your post. I didn't know those ranges

had ever been changed. Also, I sometimes think that those who have been

slighly

hypo for a long time (2 decades) might actually have some brain changes that

now require more T3 to function normally. No scientific basis for

that....it's just something I feel.

I too was planning this myself :-)
