How long did it take you guys for Armour to kick in

I just started armour 6 days ago at 30mg once a day. I felt an immediate difference the first 2 days and then started having the same symptoms I was having again..(tightness in head, dizziness, bran fog, fatigue). How long does it typically take to really start to tell a significant difference?? I am sooooo ready to kick this. Also, has anybody ever had speech issues as part of your symptoms??  I know I read that slow speech is a symptom, but mine seems more like a slurring issue.  Like there is pressure on my speech if that makes any since. Thanks in advance!

I am going to a dr on Aug 12th to get put on Armour...Just alittle concerned since I had Thyroid cancer and I am hoping armour will keep it away like synthorid does...I am afraid that I will feel worse on armour then synthroid...tell me how well armour worked for you and how long does it usually take to get the right dose??
I have my 2nd year scan in October...

Thanks Dyan

I talked like a drunken sailor when I was hypo "dead!!"

Yes I had a speec issue.

I felt different within 48 hrs. (brain fog left)

I would say I became frisky again - ( no not that way either) .. You know.. I had Life back after 5 months.

I have been optimal on Armour now 6 weeks at a max of a 2 grain dosage each day. I do however sometimes take less (90mg) at times throughout the week.
