Guest guest Posted May 24, 2004 Report Share Posted May 24, 2004 Does anyone know how to print some of the documents in the file section that seem to be wider than my printer's capabilities? I've been printing in landscape, but still missing edges of some of the articles - I don't seem to have the choice of 'fit to page' when printing them. One I was just trying to print is the one by Shomon - about TSH tests. Another was the one - Hypothyroidism and virgin coconut oil - hmmmmmm.... Thx! Cris Re: What do I do now? Hi Joan. You might find it interesting to know that I, too, was on .125 Levoxyl, and now my optimal dose of Armour is 3 grains. It's not accurate to follow Armour's recommended conversion chart!! It's a good start, but most of us go much higher. The reason you are fatigued is because you are VERY underdosed. And your doc is VERY ignorant. The key to your being underdosed is your Free T3, NOT the TSH. It's the TSH she is going by, calling you hyper. Once you start on Armour, you CANNOT go by the TSH. Check out the FILES here and you will find a good article on the TSH for your doc and yourself. Your free T3 needs to be at the top of the range. Yours reveals how underdosed you are. If you feel you have an open-minded doc, take her many of the articles in the FILES section. Otherwise, you may need to look for another doc, because with this one, you will feel even worse by dropping you 1/4 grain, or she will never be able to help you find your optimal dose since she is a TSH-doc. (now you see why many folks here end up self-dosing!! Check out the LINKS section to find places to get Armour without a prescript.)

Guest guest Posted May 24, 2004 Report Share Posted May 24, 2004 It would probably be easier if you just copy and pasted the stuff into a Word document then print it. If you don't have Word, you could try Notepad. Debbie J. > Does anyone know how to print some of the documents in the file section that seem to be wider than my printer's capabilities?

Guest guest Posted May 24, 2004 Report Share Posted May 24, 2004 Hi Cris, Have you tried blocking the text, copying it to a word processing program, then hitting paste and copying it from there?
