Re:tiredness Does one usual experience extreme tiredness or headaches when switching from t4 to Armour??? No. But I need to ask--is this what you are experiencing? How long have you been on Armour, and how much are you on?? There may be an explanation. Janie Thank-you for a reply.I just started two weeks ago.I started on 60mg thyroid from Canada. New to all this and my doctor does not unnderstand.I was told I could go hypo rather quickly and should raise my dosage to 90mgs.So I did.
