Update - After seeing my regular Endo last week and her refusal to add T3, I decided to use TeleDoc services of a Health Services that only treat the Thyroid. The doctor decided on his own without me requesting it that I have a conversion issue and prescribed 10 (mcg???) of Cytomel to my current dosage of Synthroid. He stated Armour would not be beneficial to me in that given my situation my T4 would increase.

I’m currently on 100mcgs of Synthroid but would like the dosage to be raised to help with Lipids—LDL which is high. I had a total thyroidectomy.
