Hi Lara,
thanks for response, So it is normal for the TSH to run low?? I just thought that since two times a day I get hot flashes(not menopausal, haha) And my hair is breaking off--that maybe it is because the TSH is low? that is what I thought, but my doc said the same thing that you are confirming--so she told me to stay on same dose--which is Armour 2grains--I guess I will wait it out, How will I know if the dose is to high?? My hair is so dry--I told the doc that anyone lighting a match needs to stay atleast 10ft away, ahhah and this is after not washing it for a week--trying to accumulate oil-
Maybe I am just dehydrated like I said in last post? Thanks for info and if you have any other infor it would be great--I have often wondered if I even needed to be put on thyroid meds, because my antibodies were negative, but too late for that now, cause I am sure my body is liking the fake stuff!! Thanks Dessie
