Guest guest Posted January 14, 2008 Report Share Posted January 14, 2008 Hi there, I have been on armour for almost 10 months. My initial thyroid test results were: TOTAL THYROXINE (T4) =59.1 Ref:58 - 154 nmol/L TSH =2.38 Ref:0.4 - 4.0 mIU/L FREE THYROXINE (T4) =14.3 Ref:10 - 22 pmol/L FREE T3= 5.24 Ref:2.8 - 6.5 pmol/L FREE T4 : FREE T3 RATIO =2.73 Ref:3 - 5 THYROID AUTO ANTIBODIES THYROGLOBULIN : <20 Ref: 0 - 40 PEROXIDASE (MICROSOMAL) : <10 Ref: 0 - 35 I was having many symptoms which i initially thought were hypo symptoms, but now feel were mainly adrenal symptoms after looking at http://www.drrind.com/scorecardmatrix.asp. ie. hairloss, low body temp, frequent urination, panicy, thin, stressed, hypoglycemic, poor sleeper. I am thinking of weaning of armour as i dont want to have to take it for the rest of my life if i dont really need it. Also my thyroid results were not too bad, and i am sure they fluctuate depending on other hormones in the body (eg. cortisol) Since How would i go about stopping armour, has anyone else done it? Would i have to wean of it slowly (on 3.5 grains), like with HC? Thanks a lot... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
