Hi all, would appreciate some feedback. I posted a while ago about having what I thought was a hyper swing, As symptoms seemed to indicate— palpitations, anxiety, high blood pressure, loose stools. Oh and feeling better after I’d skipped a dose of levo. Turns out I was very hypo. Test results: TPO:

Help with numbers switch to Armour?
I was hoping someone can look over my numbers and tell me if I would benefit from switching from Synthroid to Armour Thyroid. My doctor is fine prescribing Armour to me but do not want to do it if it is not going to help. I currently take 50mcg of Synthroid. TSH - 1.554 (0.280 - 3.890) T3 Free - 2.5

Dose increase from 25mcg levo - 50mcg levo - stopped levo 8 weeks ago due to sweating which my endo said was a thyrotoxic symptom
Hi I had a dose increase from 25mcg levo to 50mcg last week for hypothyroid diagnosed 2011. Is it normal to have symptoms of sweating. This has been happening even before diagnosis but I am worried it is a hyperthyroid symptom? I made the mistake of reducing my dose of 150mcg levo and took myself off

Autoimmune thyroiditis
Hi, I was diagnosed with the above last December. I have been on levothyroxine since January 2018. Before this I was tired, I'd put on lots of weight and felt very depressed.
