Hi I have been on Armour Thyroid for over 10 years and never had an issue and now I noticed Allergen is making it. I'm not getting good results there is a new manufacturer. I'm tired headache and achy. Anyone going through this?

Can't comment fully as I'm new to Armour but, although many symptoms are much better, I do feel more achey than when unmedicated and seem to get physically tired quite quickly. I'll be interested in others' responses too!

I have been on Armour for a couple of years since naturethroid stopped being manufactured. My TSH has been creeping up. It was around 3 at the beginning of last year, 4 around November and has now shot up to 6.7! I’m on 2 grains of armour daily. I was wondering if the armour no longer works for me or whether it’s because I have strong coffee almost straight after I’ve taken it. But I’ve been drinking caffeinated drinks almost immediately after thyroid meds for years.
