Thanks for the replies. I know I should give it time and I rather than be hypo than be hyper. I didn’t realize how SICK I felt with Graves’ until after surgery. I’m less emotional this past week and didn’t see as much hair loss. I’m trying to lose the weight I gained from Graves’ (I’m part of the 15% that gained with the disease) and was very frustrated with eating good and exercising everyday this week and the result was weight gain. I need to be patient which is something I have always had a problem with. I am positive because I know I’m on the road to becoming healthy.
I am interested in Armour Thyroid. I know our bodies convert t3 from t4 with Synthyroid but what about the other hormones that the thyroid makes? I read that our thyroid glands produces three other hormones (t1, t2, & Calcitonin) and I’m concern about not having a supplement for those since I had my thyroid removed.
