Hashimoto thyroid

I was on Armour thyroid 30+ 15 for a few years. Been getting rash on arms after dinner. I recently changed to

Synthroid and cytomel but still having a rash. Has anyone experienced this?

Had a allergy test done which showed allergy to cows milk. How odd because rash appears before I have my evening milk!

Could a weekly 50,000 iu dose of vitamin d be causing this? Thanks

I stopped taking 50000 iu vitamins d as it caused rash

On a different subject- I have lost weight without trying. January, 21 -112, May 13,21 - 108.2, it good, in the past I couldn’t even loose one lb even if I tried hard. I wonder why the weight is coming off!

Glad you are feeling good about losing weight!

A number of people are intolerant of vitamin D - some even in very small doses.

Are you allergic to the protein or lactose of cows' milk? Synthroid, and many other thyroid hormone medicines, contain lactose.
