Hi...I haven't posted in a long time but I need some help.
Ok, a few years ago, my old doctor felt I was hyper with 3 grains of Armour. My only symptoms were being sweaty at times.
This is what my labs were.
Free T3 403 (range 230-420)
Free T4 0.9 (range 0.8-1.8)
TSH 0.17
Found a new doctor and then started on 100 mcg Synthroid and 25 mcg of Cytomel.....since the Armour issues were starting to happen.
Labs done last week (she doesn't test TSH)
Free T3 3.5 (range 2.3-4.2)
Free T4 1.35 (range 0.80-1.80)
She felt I need more meds because my reflexes were slow. She doesn't think I was hyper on 3 grains and that is what she DXed.
She is an awesome, well known doctor in this area, but did not say I should titrate up. Could I go right back to that dose since that is what I used to be on, or ????
I am not sure what to think of all this. I am hoping the new Armour works for me. I have been chewing it which is supposed to help.
Any input is appreciated. Thanks
