Guest guest Posted November 16, 2002 Report Share Posted November 16, 2002 Hi Zoey- I remember you asking this sometime early in the week but we weren't at home then. You wanted to know why I take Cytomel (all T3) and Synthroid (T4) instead of Armour (T3 and T4 plus others). The reason I switched (I was on Armour for almost 2 1/2 years) is that no matter how I tried, I couldn't get used to taking Armour more than 2x/day (I tried to get used to taking my 4 gr. total more often-1 gr. 4x/day-but I couldn't). That let me in for a lot of daily fluctuations because of the T3 in it. With the Cytomel and Synthroid I can reduce each dose but take it 4x/day instead. This leaves me on a lot more even keel throughout the day. Take care, dx & RAI 1987 (at age 24) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
