Switch from synthroid to armour = muscle pains?

[Guest guest]

Hi there

I just switched from .50mcg T4 + 7.5mg armour TO 30mg armour (15mg

morning/evg). My doc said no tapering was necessary so i just ditched

the former and replaced it with the latter. Saliva and blood cortisol

was good, but in my saliva test my morning cortisol was a bit high and

i didn't have a dynamic pattern throughout, but nothing was low.

After 4 days on the armour i noticed hair loss and severe muscle aches.

Can anyone offer an explanation? Is it because i am more hypo now?? I

am also supplementing with iron pills (low ferritin), B12 injections,

Vitamin D and 10mg DHEA in the morning

Thanks
