Synthroid/Armour :when to up or test

[Guest guest]

I started this subject and should have mentioned more: I was on

synthroid for about 20 years, give or take. Recently, I was taking

135 mg, which was upped from 112, which was uped from 100... I hadnt

felt right in about 6 years and kept prodding my docs in the rear

for help, and of course, failed. New doc agreed to change me from

the 135 synthroid to armour, and Im on 120mg of that now. I still

feel hypo, but felt hypo on the synthroid too! I think the armour is

better, but only slightly. At least I can function to some degree

now, so it must be in the right direction, just not strong enough.

I tried cytomel with the synthroid, and it was horrible! Also, is

a grain of armour the same as 120 mg of armour? I am getting

confused.... if so, I am only on one grain, and I had I131 20 years

ago! I should have almost no function! My gut feeling is the armour

is too low.
