Guest guest Posted December 22, 2004 Report Share Posted December 22, 2004 Hi Everyone, My name is Mark and I'm a new member here. I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia in 2001. This condition came after a back injury that had me off my feet for 3 months. After suffering for a number of years I found research by Dr. Lowe indicating good results with thyroid therapy. I tried a number of physicians in my area but could not find one willing to try this therapy for Fibromyalgia. They all wanted to prescribe sleep and pain meds, which I had tried a number of for years and they did not help at all. I finally resorted to ordering Armour Thyroid on the internet. Initially I was using a generic product that gave fair results, but later found a source for Forrest Labs Armour from Biogenisis in Africa. The results were life changing. Nearly all my symptoms were eliminated or drasticly reduced. I have remained on this therapy for 2 years. I have been able to live a normal life. Two and a half months ago it was time for me to order my Armour from Biogenisis. When I placed my order I noticed that they no longer offered Forrest Labs Armour, but had changed to NatureThroid. In doing a bit of research I found that this product is apparently made from the same ALI powder as Armour (maybe someone here can verify that). I thought that this generic substitute would be fine, ordered my product, and didn't think much more about it. A few weeks later my symptoms started to return. I didn't initially make a connection with the change in thyroid therapy. i thought perhaps I was having a small outbreak of Fibro that would pass. I hasn't. It has been two and a half months and all my symptoms have returned. Unless this is just a cruel coincidence, the only conclusion I can come to is that the change in thyroid therapy has not worked for me. Thanks for listening. My question is this. Does anyone know where I can order Forrest Labs Armour on the internet ? I have been looking for weeks now and cannot find a source. I have tried the synthetic versions from Biogenisis hoping they would work. They didn't. I have seen a few a few places offering generic S-Thyroid am am considering trying it if i can't find Armour. Thanks in Advance if anyone can help ! Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
