Antibodies and Armour
by debbiebetsinger, Feb 28, 2009 03:45PM
Dr. Lupo-
Does the presence of thyroid antibodies cause Armour to be ineffective? I was on levothyroxine and not happy with the results. Do you have any other suggestions? I have heard of something called reverse T3. What impact does that have on the type of thyroid meds that are most effective?
Thanks you.
