The reason for the T4 was because my Free T4 levels were still low, my T3 was high normal and the TSH was 0.1, she had basically said that my thyroid was mildly elevated and so I talked to her and said that the Free T4 level had barely budged and she didn't want to raise the Armour because it had more T3 then T4 so I asked her to put me on the compound T4 and she did. I have felt a difference, I've been able to start losing again, I've been on it for about 6 weeks now and about 3 weeks ago is when I started losing weight.
