Tweety - you were on 1.25mg of Levo? So how much more is that compared to 50 mcg Levo?
Did the 1.25 mg of Levo help a lot?
50 mcg is half a mg, so 1.25 mg is 2.5 times as much. The Levo did not do much.
2.5 grains of NDT - what is NDT? Is this dessicated natural thyroid like Armour? Yes.
How many milligrams is 2.5 grains mean? 1 grain is similar to 1 mg Levo.
Waiting for script in mail for Armour Thyroid.
It seems like Endos have no set way to treat this disease, and did see another ENDO at Hopkins.
He added Liothyronine to lessen my symptoms - I could only do one tab - it made me speed, heart raced too much - so I stopped after one tab.
Wrote Hopkins Endo with my new levels - he wrote me that he does not think this has anything to do with my thyroid - don't know if he means pituitary or hypothalamus gland.
I find Endos don't seem to know much about thyroid disease, or just don't like to tell me any information so I am so lost how to get better. Starlily88
