First off, I still have not located a doctor in town who will prescribe Armour -- and of course now I can get the last of the RX I have filled in this town.  I was trying to get it filled before the RX is up (I have 4 refills due before 10/17/9 and I am paying private pay).  Maybe getting filled with 2 grains instead of the 1 (I take 3 1/2 and cut the 1/2)

My question is that my latest blood results came back and (this particular doctor would only run tsh -- of course the same one who says getting what I need in thyroid has NOTHING to do with mental health -- right)  But anyway I had been creeping up from the .1 that I feel best at -- this lab still uses the range ,4 to 4.0 so I had gotten to the pont where I was 4.0 before.

Now I have spiked up to 8.51 but other results are also high -- triglicerides, and fasting glucose (300 up from 120).  My fasting/non fasting has always been a little backwards.

I know chlolesterol etc can be affected, but can glucose be affected as well?

Between finding a doctor who writes armour or who will write something to keep me well (nothing else has worked and I have tried almost all) and then of course keeping it in my cubboard is exhausting.

Nancy
