Dr. Lupo:
I have been on Armour Thyroid 15mg since Aug '08. All symptoms (fatigue/hairloss/muscle soreness/blurry vision/dizziness/feeling cold) stopped at first week of treatment but after that first week, I developed stomach inflammation (just had an endoscopy indicating inflammation consistent with daily aspirin intake). I do not take any aspirin or motrin, etc.. The only drug I take is Armour Thyroid. Is it possible to be react to Armour Thyroid in this way? I've tried the compounded thyroid also and it made everything worse. I also have trouble dosing up on the Armour even though I still get fatigue in the evenings. My doctor wanted to me add another 7.5mg evening dose but I get heart palps and it seems the acid reflux gets worse. Could the T3 in Armour do this? Any ideas?
