Armour Thyroid
"Complete Thyroidectemy for cancer and two HUGE goiters with several nodules; which were crushing my esophagus.  Immediately put on Thyroxine and became deathly ill within 2 days.  I malabsorb Thyroxine and am severely allergic to lactose, acacia (grass) & sugar.  Dr. insisted on increasing dosage, rather than listening to me; as seems to the usual.  I am still looking for a Dr. with more knowledge about Armour Thyroid than me, because I am still very ill.  But, I would have DIED on Thyroxine and IF I had kept WATCHING my goiter.  The surgeon came out shocked by the 'grapefruit' size.   Cancer was almost secondary.   Drs. aren't even being taught about Armour Thyroid today.  So sad and SO FRIGHTENING.  Is this a way to kill off more seniors?"
