Anyone Else On Armour Thryoid

About 10 years ago when at Doctor's I told him I had lost my energy - blah to be exact - he did blood work - and put me on Armour thyroid - Since it got harder and harder to find - I finally told Doctor that I had gone a week without and couldn't find - so he immediately contacted a compounding pharmacy" and they sent me another type.  My favorite pharmacist - who has his Doctorate - told me that about a month ago - a nation wide chain who he works for - has gone into compounding - which will save me shipping fees.

Are you being informational?

If so, yes this board is aware of the Armour shortage and many have changed to compounding thyroid meds, synthetics or Nature Throid.  Walgreen's, a nation wide chain has some compounding pharmas - very few. 99% of compounding pharmas around here are ma and pa places from way back.

Did you have a question at all?
