It's been a long while...

Due to technical difficulties, i haven't been on this site for a long while but I am back! Update: After being tired (literally) on synthroid for three years after my TT in 12/09, I have decided to go on the limb and switch my med's to Thyroid S (NDT). I've been on this med for three weeks thus far and I have started exercising again and feeling more energized. I'm not going boast too much because it's only the beginning, however, I do feel a difference verses using a T4 only med. I hope that all of my 'old' friends are okay and i'm glad to be back!

Thanks for looking into that.  I guess it will remain a mystery.  Glad to hear it's working for you.

It comes in a packet and says: NDT Analytical Reference Standard 1grain, pure grade, Thyroid-S....formula per tablet: NDT, 1gr, fillers, binders. It does not state the breakdown of content

Does it say on the label what it contains for thyroid hormone?  Does it just say "thyroid" or does it break down the amount of T3 and T4?  I've always been curious and have been asked how it compares to Armour, etc, but I've never seen an actual bottle.

Hey Bruce...

Trust me, I took ur post seriously and I am monitoring. I do believe that one living without a thyroid may benefit from the increase verses one who has some thyroid function....Any thoughts????

Ive been spying on you and a little birdy told me you were doing better.  Will you have any blood work?  remember to go slow on that stuff.   SLOW.  dont listen to any of that STTM cr@p and double dose or any of whatever the latest fad is on there.   That stuff will sneak up on you very quickly.

Hey there....i ordered online, with guidance of course. I started five weeks ago and so far I've increased to two grains. After i have labs, i can tell if i need an increase. So far, so good.

Hey, I see you're not "sawed" any more!  LOL  I know, I know, two Vs.

So glad to hear you're feeling better.  I'd love to hear about the Thyroid S.  What did you have to do to get it, etc.
