Guest guest Posted August 4, 2012 Report Share Posted August 4, 2012 I was told today by my pharmacy that Levothroid is on back order. She called several surrounding pharmacy's and found one that had 55 left of 150mcg left. I bought them all. Website (forest) says under construction. This makes me a tad nervous. I will call forest monday. Wondering if anyone else is having issues. Location is Virginia.Sent from my iPhone Hi, call your local pharmacy and ask which other drs prescribe Armour . Then visit them and see if they are willing to do other tests. Joan > > Does anyone know of a reputable home testing lab to recommend? My endocrinologist refuses to test any othere hormone levels or check the adrenal system even when I've told him that I'm still having lots of problems following my Hashimoto's diagnosis and it seems EVERYTHING I've read says that the adrenal system and other hormones, such as estrogen and progesterone, should be checked as they are all affected by the thyroid gland. > > Does anyone know about the hair follicle tests? I am interested in this test for my daughter as well since Hashimoto's is hereditary. I've been told by both her doctor AND mine that "we don't normally do that", meaning, they don't test hormone levels and my endocrinologist only gives out synthroid for Hashimoto's and they don't check any other systems. I'm read to try and find things out on my own because my daughter is only 10 and has excessive hair growth above her lip, and I am having cycles that last up to two weeks then stop for about a week then start right back up again. I'm still really tired and my hair has started falling out again. > > I appreciate any advice anyone might be able to send. > > Thank you, > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
