I have recently been plagued with the thought of switching to armour. Due to 
the possibility of feeling better than I have in about 2 years.  I had a total 
thyroid and partial parathyroid removal. I had a goiter, but was told I was 
hypothyroid. I had cancer and underwent radioiodine therapy as well. I felt 
immediately better after my surgery, and my level was at 75, before I took my 
radioiodine treatment. I now have, for the past 2.5 years feelt the way I felt 
before my surgery. very BAD  Dr. says that it has nothing to do with my 
thyroid, but wouldn't take the time to check and see what's wrong. I have 
changed family dr. but recently moved and have yet to find an endo dr. What 
would you suggest?  I am to the point of totally discontinuing my thyroid meds 
to see if it makes a difference. As I am considered, by my levels, to by 
hyperthoid, but have many the symptoms of hypothyroidism. Eg., weight gain, 
inability to lose weight, confusion, memory loss, headaches, intollerance to 
heat, swelling, fatigue at times, and insonmia at other times. and decreased 
appetite.
