Shaky feeling inside/Armour thyroid

[Guest guest]

Hello all,

I am new to the group and experiencing symptoms since changing my dose

of Armour. I have got in a mess.... I have been taking 1 grain a day

(in the morning, an hour before breakfast) for three years now, but

decided to up the dose as I was feeling sluggish again. I took an

extra half a grain for two days and did not feel ok, so went back to my

normal dose. Then I got a tightness in the chest and that shaky

feeling inside and scared myself so stopped taking anything for two

days! I have gradually started introducing the Armour again - half a

grain a day and I feel even more shaky. I have split the dose on

reading that it is best to do this (??) a quarter grain in the moring

and a quarter grain in the afternoon. I feel decidedly odd and am

feeling like I want to stop the Armour

Could this shaking be connected to the adrenals? I seem to get the

shaking feeling whether taking more - or less than my regular dose.

I would be really grateful for any thoughts or experiences. Thank you,

Lesley
