I've been on Armour for many years. I also keep myself slightly
hyperthyroid. I have fought my doctors on this point for ten years now.
My current doctor doubled my Armour almost three years ago - which I
thought was extreme. But all is well. Except that I got cancer anyway.
Obviously, my cancer was NOT easily cured by using high doses of Armour
and eating a vegetarian raw food diet. Hence why I do not believe
everything you say.
I know exactly what Armour is and it IS dangerous. Giving someone a
treatment for a disease they don't have is never a good idea. Were you
aware that many people are allergic to the porcine product in Armour?
Armour, even in tiny doses, makes them horribly sick? I've met at least
three women with that problem. Also, my ND tells me that those patients
with Hashimoto's Thyroiditis sometimes do NOT do well on Armour. For
those people synthetic is a far better choice.
My father has been on synthetic for decades and he has suffered no
problems from it. It is a great alternative for many. My mother, by
the way was hyperthyroid. She was hyperthyroid for 30 years. The
doctor only medicated her when her symptoms became bad. Other than
that, she remained unmedicated. She also was a ballerina, so lots of
exercise, worked in the yard and got tons of sunlight. She ate a
wonderful diet. She died of cancer. People who are slightly
hyperthyroid do get cancer nowadays.
The simple under the arm test for checking the thyroid does not work for
everyone, either. It has never worked for me. My current doctor had me
do that for a few weeks. A better test is to have the Free T3 and Free
T4 tested through a blood test. ALL results should be looked at
carefully.
I will go back to synthetic hormones if I need to. I prefer Armour, but
notice no difference between the two. I think there are those that
can't handle synthetic. But there are hundreds of thousands of people
who do just as fine on them. They are not "nasty."
I have been involved with a very large thyroid group for a decade. This
is an online community, btw. Oddly enough there are only two of us who
have developed cancer out of the thousands who have been through the
group. That's not a good indication, of course, on whether thyroid
patients are going to develop cancer. But I certainly have absolutely
no proof that what you are saying is true. Plus, in another cancer
group I frequent, where the women are very young, have not had mammos
because of their age, yet still have breast cancer, only a few are hypo.
So, following your advice, I should never have developed cancer. I'm on
Armour. I eat right. I exercise. I get sunlight.
Taking thyroid hormones when they are not needed is dangerous. Taking
ANY medication when it is not needed is dangerous. Hormones CAN cause
damage in the body...heck, estrogen did a doosy on me. Heart problems,
osteoporosis, all the symptoms of hyperthyroidism - which can be very
uncomfortable - and even burning out a thyroid...thus actually causing
thyroid disease, can all result from taking Armour when it is not
needed.
