heart palpitations

by peggy64, Jun 20, 2008 07:34AM

I am wondering if too low a dose of armour thyroid can cause heart palps, or is it just if you have too much armour?

Just thinking. Probably too much...

Anyways, thanks for being here....Peggy

Hi .. from what I understand too hyper or too hypo can cause that type of palp but you must talk to your dr and let him know; you cannot mess around with palps ever as a TSH that is not good for you can land you in the ER with a thyroid storm and that is life threatening oftentimes

I get the palps and wasnt ever told that this could turn into thyroid storming. When you say TSH... what numbers are we talking about?? I was told palps are normal..

Palps can also happen with medication change and dosage changes....if you continue to have palps for a couple weeks or more I would call the docs office. You can also get them if you are still in the hypo range too. :)
