I followed the directions from the Armour site. My doc

is very conservative, and is treating by TSH.

My doc actually seems concerned for my safety, and I do

have hypertension, so she is being very cautious.

I'm monitoring BP and temp every day, so I don't let it

get out of whack, kind of like they did in the old days

before TSH tests.

I trust following my symptoms, BP and temp a lot more

than some lab result. I think that they do this just to

cover their ass because of malpractice.
