Why did you start it? > I started on the Armour back around the end of February. And I started the Delta the end of June...so I'd been on Armour 4 months...and at the 3 1/2 about a month or so. I really haven't had any hyper stuff at all. But I think everybody is individual on this. The Delta kicked in for me about the 5th day...where I could really tell a difference. I think I would have been fine dropping down a grain a day for a while...but i didn't....and everything worked out okay. I can remember being really scared about a hyper fit coming on me. And maybe it still will. But I also know I've has Hashi's for a long time...and I'm probably gonna need at least 3 grains...so...so far, okay. Don't know if this helps...it can be a trial and error sometimes. There was a lady on the thyroid board who did get hyper for about two days...but she stopped taking Armour for those two days...and then started back at a lower dosage.

Guest guest Posted July 9, 2004 Report Share Posted July 9, 2004 Cindi, How long had you been on the 3 1/2 grains? I am just worried that I haven't had enough experience with the Armour-- thinking I could go hyper on it all of a sudden.

Guest guest Posted July 9, 2004 Report Share Posted July 9, 2004 This helps a lot, just to know how other people manage it. I know it is trial and error, but I am trying to minimize my error! LOL I have been trying to get healthy intensely for about 4 years, and have made a lot of mistakes along the way. I think I will observe how I feel on the Armour for a couple more days, and then decide about the adrenal help. I also feel like everything doesn't fall into place right away, and some symptoms are transient. So I will have to see. And I will have to stay away from talking to my doctor. > Don't know if this helps...it can be a trial and error sometimes.
