I want to know how the medical profession can get away with telling a patient that how they feel is less important or not important at all to the kind of “medicine” they receive. For example in my personal and recent experience: I have been told by a certain “health care professional”, that the FDA will only allow me to take a certain amount of Armour Thyroid per day and that I am at that limit [180 mg]. Her statement is NOT true, because the FDA has no relationship with Armour Thyroid – yet I can not convince anyone that what they collectively, and as general practice, are doing is incorrect and that their inaction to help me, and others like me [mostly women], is purely immoral.

I was told that medicine is more an “art form than it is a science” AND I have been told that my symptoms are “too many” and “in my head” so I was prescribed antidepressants and Seretonin uptake “inhibitors” and told to see a psychologist, because the clinic offered this service on a sliding scale {CICP/MCPN in Colorado}.

I was told that Armour is not the modern and standard treatment for Hashimoto’s and other hypothyroid conditions. Because the AMA says only L-Thyroxine is acceptable! Why do these people insist on keeping people sick and not address the root cause? Yes I know it is for money – but it will never be correct and always morally wrong!

Now I am back to finding a care practitioner that knows how to dose this much needed bioidentical hormone that if I do not receive will cause me to suffer this disease while causing additional compounded health problems.
