[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP- OP here. Thank you so much for your post. I really appreciate it. One of the primary reasons I'm not going back to the first OB I consulted with was that he suggested switching me to levothyroxine during pregnancy. It's scary how poor care for thyroid disorders can be. I also believe that there is really no effective treatment for the autoimmune response underlying the thyroid dysfunction. I really wish there was. I will say in the 3 years I've been on Armour I've managed to get my free T3, free T4, and TSH stabilized within normal range and my TPO and thyroglobulin antibodies have dropped considerably (TPO down to 64 from a high of 266 in 2012). My gyn who prescribes Armour won't treat while I'm pregnant. I've been ordering regular (self pay) complete thyroid panels from mymedlab (when are we going to get beyond Drs only concerned w TSH?) but I will need to refill my Armour prescription soon. Fingers crossed I can find an OB who's on board. If you gave any recs for a source I'm all ears. Thanks again. :)[/quote]
