But too strong for me. Had palpitations. Made me too tense.

I switched to armour to see if it would be more effective then synthroid and have noticed no real change I am currently on 3 grains.

Helped me feel better but didn't help my fybromyalga. Went on Time relaeased Liothyronine and within 3 days the fybromyalga went away.

I'm on this medicine currently. It works better for me then the Synthroid did, but I often still feel weak and tired.

It worked in the beginning and then went downhill. Ended up worse off than with initial diagnosis and now am being tested for Addisons as well.

It seemed better at first because the hot flashes from the surgical menopause went away as did other symptoms.

I stopped the armour all together and the sweats came back though the hot flashes have remained gone.
