Guest guest Posted August 11, 2004 Report Share Posted August 11, 2004 I had so much pain 4-5 years ago I thought I would be in a wheel chair by now! It is not just taking Armour that will relieve this, it is getting optimized. I had to actually add in quite a but of T3 to start getting relief, but that I think is due to insecticide poisoning in my system. My hands are twisted from arthritis and no pain at all now, no pain in my knees which I had since teenage years and I am almost 50 now. My back pain in the AM is all but gone, but does seem to still return in the late afternoons when I am very tired. I am not 100% yet but getting there, it is amazing how many things have resolved in my health since getting this close to optimized on my meds. NEVER will I trust a doctor to adjust them or choose which ones for me again! It has been a long crawl back to health for me, but I am almost there, so there is hope for you as well.

Guest guest Posted August 11, 2004 Report Share Posted August 11, 2004 If it always come before a strom, sounds like an arthritic problem to me, not a fibro thing. It's the joints reacting to a change in barometric pressure. Perhaps a nerve is getting pinched and therefore the pain radiates out across the shoulders. Blessings, Debbie K. muscle pain Hi everyone, I have a question: I've had this pretty significant pain across the top of my shoulders for about 20 years now and at the time was given the diagnosis of " fibromyalgia " . I've been taking Armour for a good 2 months after reading about hypothyroidism and it's symptoms and how it is being misdiagnosed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 11, 2004 Report Share Posted August 11, 2004 , What a wonderful testimony. I wish I had a bunch of short, to-the-point testimonies like that to take to my regualr doc.

Guest guest Posted August 11, 2004 Report Share Posted August 11, 2004 I will offer my phone number (privately) to anyone that would like for me to GIVE my testimony to their doctors. My own Mother committed suicide at 35 years young due to untreated, undiagnosed thyroid depression and I vowed I would NOT go the same way and that is where I was headed under doctor supervision. Take away my Armour? Over my dead body! Literally. Artistic Grooming * Hurricane, WV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 11, 2004 Report Share Posted August 11, 2004 , I don't have nearly the " flare ups " after being on the Hallelujah diet for a year. (That was 7 years ago.) I still try to eat alot of the diet, but I'm no where near 100% now. But it did make a difference. I didn't have the extreme pain that many have. But I was taking Tylenol daily before the diet. I don't take anything any more. I'll have an inkling of the pain you are talking about (top of shoulders) every now and then, but it doesn't stay. I'm so thankful! Now I'm taking natural progesterone (as well as Bi-est and testosterone) to balance my hormones. I'm hoping that's making a difference too. The progesterone is an anti-inflammatory. I hope you find relief! in Va. Hi everyone, I have a question: I've had this pretty significant pain across the top of my shoulders for about 20 years now and at the time was given the diagnosis of " fibromyalgia " . I've been taking Armour for a good 2 months after reading about hypothyroidism and it's symptoms and how it is being misdiagnosed. My question is: To those of you who also had bad muscle and joint pain, does it get better? I don't see any change in the pain. And it still flares up 2-3 days before a storm. I really don't expect it to get 100% better (especially since I had it for 20 years) but do you think I have any hope of some relief?
