Hi All,
I have been on 1 grain of armour and 50mcg of levo daily. Since taking armour I have had problems with sweating, my endo said my ft3 was on the high side (sorry no tests to show) and decided I take on alternative days 1/2 grain and 50mcg and gave me a script for 1grain and 1/2 grain. I haven't been too well lately I've had bad headaches and neck pain, this causes pressure in my head and my eye sight feels strange and generally feel really out of sorts, in the afternoon I am out of it and feel so tired. Doctor is treating me for spondylitis but recently I noticed actavis took over forest and I refused the brand levo manufactured by actavis because I always felt unwell taking that brand which made me feel like my throat was swollen the same as what's going on with me now but didn't have the neck pain and headaches. I did try the alternative 1/2 grain with levo but had migraines and went back to 1grain and 50mcg of levo.
Now to the point is there another reputable NDT that I can ask my endo for or could I just stop taking the 1 grain and add another 50mcg making it 100mcg daily and can I do the switch asap or slowly. Since being on the armour my BP has raised as well as my cholesterol, feel like am a mess at the minute.
Any advice would be welcome.
