Tremors/heart palps on armour
Have been on
synthroid
for 30 years. Trying Armour. Started at 60mg. Fine more energy, sleeping, no fog. After 4 weeks developed palps. 6 weeks really bad so drop to 45. one week later drop to 30. Feeling better after on 30 for 5 days so every 5 days or so added 15mg.

Is it common for t4 hormone brands to be incapability after prolonged use?
Hi I was wanting to know about levothyroxine brands of thyroid hormone i.e.
synthroid
, levothyroxinex and tirosint? I wanted to know with the exclusion of dosage changes, however, does t4 stop being adequate thyroid hormone treatment.

Worried about test results
I have Hashimotos and I take 150 mcg of
synthroid
I was hoping for a dose increase but the way I see my free t3 I don’t know what’s going to happen! I’m bummed out about this.

How long after last meal can I take synthroid?
I been taking my
synthroid
everyday at 6 am and do wait an hour before having breakfast, but I try not to drink milk or have anything with calcium in it as I heard it can mess with the absorption.

Confused?
I’m on 75 mcg
Synthroid
and 20mcg. Liothorine. Seems I’m a bad converter from T4-T-3. I was taking all at once but now taking T-4 at bedtime and liothorine T-3 I morning at 6am. My question is this leg swelling from APS or as dr. Said insufficient veins. I don’t want to have a second stroke.

Abbvie (Synthroid) posters at the American Thyroid Assoc versus Tania Smith's demolition
The latest Tania Smith's contribution assesses the latest posters from Abbvie (makers of
Synthroid
) in which they try purely by TSH criteria to boost there product against generic thyroxine. Good dmoltion of truly terrible work by big Pharma trying to promote their product over others.

Thyroid and hair loss
I’ve been on
Synthroid
for many many years and never really feeling tons better . Just a little better. My hair started falling out and I continued to gain weight year after year , never losing a pound no matter how hard I tried. I decided to add 5 mg T3 Liothyronine. I feel like a new person .

Do you accept your diagnosis?
I was eventually put on
Synthroid
and then added armour but I have never been the same since. I've not spent one day feeling like myself and it's been a struggle with symptoms coming and going and my energy levels rising and falling. It's a real roller coaster ride.

Does thyroid hormone go to the pituitary??
She insists that i’m over medicated and that the excess
synthroid
& T3 are going to my pituitary. Does this make sense? I would think i’m not getting enough or i’m not absorbing very well. All my vitamins are optimal, but i’m still feeling unwell.
