My current symptoms are fatigue, body pain, weakness, thinning hair, brain fog, poor memory,dry skin, swollen glands, sore throat and generally feeling unwell. I would love some input on what anyone thinks of these new results and what I should do next. Thanks

Poor you! Well your results look to me like you're over medicated on thyroid and have a adrenal problem too but I'm no expert... Maybe you need your vitamin levels and iron tested too? X

I just spotted you said brain fog - have you read Datis Kharrazian's Why do I still have thyroid symptoms? And his brain book Why isn't my brain working? They're v good. I had terrible brain fog which I have fixed wih protein shakes. He says eating early and regularly is really important for your blood sugar and how you feel/ how brain works. He says brown rice protein is best, I get it on amazon x

This man has explained a lot about low thyroid in these short videos. I am posting #5 which is about cortisol since you appear to have very low cortisol which hinders your thyroid treatment. (Except in your case, it doesn't seem to.:)

You have the highest level of FT3 I've seen posted on this forum and that would interpret as over medicated. And the fact you are not taking T3 separately from your Armour is very curious.

Thanks Heloise-have seen some of these before-he's great! I dropped the Armour by 1/2 grain recently and felt horrible but I might try dropping by 1/4 and see what happens
