Hi deb33, i don't recall having an ultrasound done, i had an antibodies test run and discovered i have Hashimotos thyroid disorder (autoimmune), my doc palpitates my thyroid gland and says it is fine, no lumps. Sounds like your doc is ok, i just had a lot of trouble with docs over the years in the US and Britain. So try and educate yourself on your disorder as much as possible, it is to your benefit. It took about 2 mos before i started to feel good on the Armour and now i feel 100xs better. Some people seem to do better with the added t4 which is what armour has, it is both t3 and t4. See how you do on Synthroid, everyone is dfferent, and lots of people do good. I have hormonal probs too related to thyroid, they are finally starting to calm down some, hopefully the l'cing will make a difference as too much weight is correlated with hormonal probs too. I gained through the thyroid probs though, anyway i've talked enough hope everything goes well for you, let me know how you are doing, also my TSH when diagnosed (finally) was 15. I was very ill at that point, good luck, Bye for now Bunner.
