Never had, nor heard of, that type of reaction to "Armour". I was on it for a few months per my LLND, but was swayed back to Synthroid by my PCP. (Never noticed a difference)
Could it just be coincidental? Sounds more like symptoms of a flu-type bug. (Lot of that goin' around)

Your are so right. I think it was the flu. My stomached was off, weak, fever. I'm doing better now. Still a little off but better than yesterday. Thanks for all your help.

can be weak adrenal glands from all the research I've done on dessicated thyroid/t3. Lots of controversy on this subject. People to look up who are on the same side as me:
janie bowthorpe kent holtorf dr. rind john c lowe
and basically most of the medical industry is against armour, and any t3.

I too have been taking Armour Thyroid and even when I have switched from one type to another, I've never heard of these types of symptoms.
With that said, something is going on, so I would definitely mention it to your doctor. Please keep us posted.

janice, Hope you're doing fine now. I had a close call w/ a similar bug myself. Almost got it- twice- over this last week. Took care o'myself & I think I dodged a bullet that took several down at work for a couple days.
I have a book from a cutting-edge endocrinologist ('The 2% Solution' maybe?) which says a 2% addition of T-3 to the T-4 is best for many, & that a compounding pharmacist can make it up.
That's why *I* tried a tiny [15mg] Armour tab w/ the Synthroid (amount adjusted). Armour is a 4.22-to-1 ratio of T4 to T3. But, again, *I* never noticed any difference.
