Betsy;
I take desiccated thyroid 30mg and I was prescribed 1 a day. I found that
I could not sleep and was very restless.Now I cut the pill in half and take
1/2 in the morning and 1/2 in the evening and now I sleep as soundly as I
did before.I am on this for 2 weeks and I was on Synthroid for almost a
year.I have lost about 5 pounds and the swelling in my legs is much
better.Most likely the 5 pounds was fluid.I also have more energy.
