update
Yesterday was horrible! I woke up with my eyes hurting worse and ached throughout the night. I was trembling inside and out and felt bad. I had taken 90mg of Armour as instructed by doctor. I had wondered if I should have tapered off the levo and slowly added the Armour, but he said no, just stop the levo and start Armour. I called to report my symptoms. I have been taking my temp and blood pressure when waking before getting out of bed. My temp was down to 96.9 yesterday-falling each am somewhat and my b/p had gone up to 133/90 and heart rate was from 79-90 the previous days this week. Yesterday it was 112/68 and rate was 91. He instructed me to lower dosage to 60mg of Armour. I dont know, but I had read if the temp falls to increase medicine as you would be hypo. But I am following his orders as he was concerned about the b/p and rate. This am I feel bad, but not as bad as yesterday. I know it takes some time for the levo to get out of your system and new med to start. Any opinions on this? Hope this is a good day for everyone. Take care.

I feel for you girl we get so tired of being tired and feeling bad all the freaking time. People without graves don\"t understand and don\"t wanna hear it anymore.
Thanks Snippy, Yes, it is hard and just because you don\'t look sick-doesn\'t mean you are not. Course, I look horrid and feel that way, too. A friend of mine came by today and prayed with me and I am just putting it in Gods\' hands, thats all we can do. Bless you and I will pray for you and all persons with this terrible affliction.
