Guest guest Posted April 11, 2012 Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 Hi, My name is , I am 50-years-old and was just " officially " diagnosed with Hashimoto's. I’ve had hypo and sometimes hyper symptoms for many, many years but was not tested for TPO antibodies until 2004. I tested positive but my then Endo felt that I did not require treatment and that instead, we should just watch and wait. I also have a very strong family history of Hashimoto's (daughter, sister, mother). Many Endo’s later, a TPO antibody retest and I have now been placed on 15 mg of Armour. I took my first dose this morning and I must say, I felt horrible all day! My Anti-TPO was 966 U/ml (lab ref <60) and my Endo said that my values are not very high. Other Chronic Conditions: Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia PCOS Hyperinsulinemia Ulcerative Colitis Grade II Diastolic Dysfunction Hyperlipidemia B12 deficiency Iron deficiency Folate deficiency D deficiency Thank you for letting me be part of your group.
