Guest guest Posted February 16, 2005 Report Share Posted February 16, 2005 >>but I upped myself to the 3S/1A. Then when I told her, she decided to go to 2 Armour and then raise up gradually since she wasn't sure of the potency of the Thyroid S.<< Never the less, You were on 4 grains of thyroid, then down to 2 then you took 3 then back to 2.25.. Thyroid-S is VERY close to Armour and the jumps made in your meds WILL make you feel bad. Maybe SHE isn't sure of the potency of Thyroid -S but I am sure it is very close to Armour. It certainly is NOT 3 grains=1 grain which is her assumption to change your dose to 2 grains. Your body knows the difference whether your doctor does or not. Jumping that dose around like that is going to CAUSE Adrenal stress if you haven't already got it, you will have. *Artistic Grooming * Hurricane, WV Fat cat? Diabetes?

Guest guest Posted February 16, 2005 Report Share Posted February 16, 2005 GOOD GIRL!!! And as for the Prozac... She can put that stuff where the sun don't shine! LOL With this doc's fears of treating your thyroid properly, you may never get enough of a dose out of her to feel well, but that only means you have to USE your head and plan to always have extra on hand to make up the difference. I know I did that for several years when I was intent on getting a doctor to prescribe for me. I simply don't care to pay them to teach them anymore. Especially when most do not want to learn. *Artistic Grooming * Hurricane, WV Fat cat? Diabetes?
