I've been on synthroid for a couple years now and I am still exhausted. I've seen two endos and both of them just shrug and say they don't know why I'm tired. I usually sleep most of the day on my days off/weekend. I've tried a GF diet, taking the pill at night instead of in the am, etc. Still so freaking tired. [/quote]

I was on synthroid and still felt tired.  The doctor switched me to armorthyroid, which made a big difference for me.  Armor is natural, made from pig thyroid.[/quote]

Can you give the name of this Dr.[/quote]

Michael West but he is in DC.

At first I was on the generic syntroid.  He said that sometimes the generic doesnt work for people.  He then switched me to synthroid.  Though my numbers were fine on synthroid, I still felt tired.  So, he switched me to armor.  He said something like because it was from a pig, it not only had whatever is in synthroid but also other stuff that is in a porcine's thyroid.[/quote]
