Hypothyroidism, After Thyroid Removal
"I was diagnosed with Grave&#039;s Disease and had my thyroid radiated so it no longer functions. I was started on Synthroid and I felt horrible. I was eventually prescribed all the other thyroid medicines but nothing worked well. I felt awful, I couldn&#039;t remember anything, I was exhausted and irritable all the time. Finally a Dr. prescribed me Armour and I feel almost normal again. It can be very hard to get as Dr.&#039;s have to have a special license to prescribe it but I&#039;ve been persistent and will accept no other thyroid replacement medication. "
