Hypothyroid Armour
Hello!!
Just wanted to see if anyone else has had a similar experience?
I got diagnosed hypo about 12 years ago and originally was on armour and did great. After a couple years (I was pediatric) I had to see a new doctor and they switched me to levo. I never really felt better on it other than my digestion and metabolism were good.
My levels have been not optimal for a long time, and my TSH just started to increase. My doctor switched me back to Armour with a higher dose to get my TSH back down. (I was on 50 mcg levo and now on 60 grain armour)
It’s been two weeks and I am waking up really puffy in the face and getting that adrenaline ice plunge feeling throughout the day. I’m just wondering if there’s an adjustment period when you switch like that? I’d like to stick it out at least until my 6 week check
