Typical ...

[Guest guest]

I come here and learn all sorts of interesting things, I look at the

files and read up and go through all the research.

I take the advice of Sheila and write down all my symptons whilst on

Levothyroxine, I print off the letter that went to all the Endos and

PCTs. I get a copy of the patient information for Armour. I spend

weeks and weeks researching and learning, finding out the best Endos

in my area. All this to ask my Dr 1 little question.

Me: Dr I have printed a list of all the symptoms I am suffering from

and I feel that the doseage of 200 is very high to be still suffering

from these symptoms (I hand Dr a list). Is it possible for me to

have a trial of Armour Thyroid?

Dr: Yes

Just like that! I almost feel disappointed that I was not able to

impress the Dr with how through I have been in my research. Any how

the upshot is I have just had a blood test (TSH and Antibodies) and

should get the result this week, I have to write a letter authorising

the Dr to divulge some of my medical details to enable the Dr to get

the Armour and then I have 3 months to discover if it works better

for me .......

I would never have dared ask without the help and information from

here.
