1541952 tn?1317816629 I have to wear high heels for work but they like constantly give me awful blisters where the shoe rubs against the bare skin on the back of my heel and I'm always having to cover my feet in bandaids... is there a better solution? I've tried a few different brands of high heels, and like a few different half-sizes up or down and while some are more comfortable than others, I still somehow get blisters everytime.
Avatar f tn I've been taking 60mg of armor thyroid for about 10 days and have noticed my symptoms like tiredness achiness and constipation have worsened. Could the Armor thyroid be causing this? My TSH is 6.230 T3 reverse is 9.8 T4 direct is 0.
Avatar f tn I have been on Armor for 8 years now. I had a hysterectomy two years ago and then had my annual thyroid tests done. After the doctor tried to convince me to change medication, she then reduced my thyroid meds by 30 gr. I had been on 90 gr for years and all symptoms were gone. she lowered it because the TSH was testing at .37 (normal for Armor) History - from 2001 to 2006 TSH range from 2001 to 2006 .4 to .57 T4 range from 2001 to 2006 .7 to 1 (.8 to 1.
Avatar f tn You should call your doctor and try to get a copy of your lab report - or at least the result, along with reference ranges, in order for members to be able to comment accurately.
684676 tn?1503186663 Three of the band members, including lead singer Ronnie Van Zant, were killed in a 1977 plane crash. The band regrouped and continues to perform. Mr Skinner's surviving children said their father was never completely comfortable with being linked to the band but did grow to embrace it. "He made a lot of new friends," his daughter, Susie Moore said.
Avatar m tn No, just because Armour has both T3 and T4, does not make it "better". As I said before, it's best for some, not for others, because not everyone needs that much T3; that's why I'd asked for your actual levels, to help determine whether or not it might be best for you.
Avatar f tn So when I sleep I like to switch sides. Lately when I do I feel pain in my stomach. Its hard to describe but it leaves me moaning til the pain goes away. I thought maybe if I don't eat and drink before bed then it wouldn't happen. I have yet to test that theory lol. Should I be concerned?
Avatar f tn As I recall, the recommended range for the ratio of FT3 to RT3 is from 1-2, and the higher the better.. To get this number you multiply the FT3 result by 100 and divide by the RT3 result. Yours would thus be 1.9 times 100, divided by 270. This would be calculated to be about .78, which is low. I would expect you to have significant hypo symptoms with the combination of low FT3 and a low ratio of FT3/RT3.
Avatar n tn My doc recently doubled my Armor dosage from 120mg to 240mg taken simultaneously. Has anyone experienced this dramatic of an increase? Wouldn't this be the equivalent of 400mcg of levoxyl or synthroid? Hashi's ...been on Armor about 10 mos...switched from Levoxyl 150mcg to 90mg Armor...upped to 120mg in Nov....now DOUBLED? Any thoughtful opinions would be appreciated...
4147584 tn?1351546606 Just left doctor, they said they saw an amniotic band and now I'm in full time panic mode . Ftm. Scared to sleep on my side now, because I'm paranoid the baby might get stuck to the band. Help ? What to do ?
Avatar f tn Its not painful or uncomfortable I rub my ear and it stops_ it also feels like laying on one side and ear goes to sleep. My SI pain is about a 5 all the time. I take 30 mg of armor thyroid, and 10 mg of lexapro a day I don't take any pain medication'. A neurosurgeon did my laminectomy. I also developed high BP with my last injection a week ago and I'm on 5 mg of meds for that until it levels out.
Avatar n tn Thank you for nice respond but I wonder one point that band aid can prevent the passing of blood in to wound surface? There was a band aid when I touch with my fingers.
Avatar f tn I did try Synthroid with Cytomel but that did not work as good with my symptoms as the armor, but it definitely did not give me the bodyaches. Thank you for any feedback.
Avatar n tn I am a female police officer, and wonder about breast health due to wearing ill fitting body armor. The vest my department provides is not cut with cups for the breasts. The breast are compressed on a constant basis. Besides the obvious uncomfort, are there any health concerns that I could present to my department in hopes of obtaining better body armor. There is a company that only makes vests for women, but they are more expensive than others.

Avatar m tn I am now on armor thyroid. Very interestingly, right after taking the covid vaccine (moderna in my case), I feel the need to reduce the dose of my thyroid medication. This happens for every single vaccine shot that I took. Before my first shot, I was on 120 to 135mg armor thyroid daily. I was initially not aware of the effects on my thyroid and still maintained the same dose after the shot. I was not able to fall asleep and had frequent heart palpitations.
Avatar f tn What is causing this and is there something I can do at home to help this reaccuring problem. For it to go away I usually have to go in for my band to be loosen but about three weeks later like clock work its back to that again. I am very concern about nutrition.

Avatar f tn I am hypo. On Armor for many years now with occasional changes based on blood work. Started on Cytomel about a year ago and again gradually increased. Current dose of Cytomel 20mcg daily and Armor just decreased to 45mg daily. Did blood work because I was feeling hyper, palpitations, anxiety, irritable, fatigue. Current blood work: TSH 0.01 (0.4-4) Free T3 331 (230-420) Free T4 0.62. (0.7-1.
434278 tn?1324706225 If you will please tell us about any other symptoms you are having, and also post actual test results for all the thyroid tests, along with reference ranges shown on the lab report, members will be better able to assess the status of your testing and treatment.
Avatar f tn From 2006 to Feb 2008, I was on Armor Thyroid. The last dose was 3.5 grains. My TSH kept going up with each dose increase. The Endo I was seeing didn't know why. I left that Endo & now see MD who has me on 25 mcg Cytomel 3x daily. My TSH as of yesterday's blood draw is 25.75. My FT4 is .39 (.61-1.76 range) and FT3 is 3.2 (2.3-4.2 range). Is my TSH eratic because of Hashimotos? I won't take Synthroid again.
