How Can Thyroid Dysfunction Be Managed?

I have had I have had thyroid issues for over 40 years. I am experiencing almost the same side effects now as I did years ago. I have been diagnosed with Diabetes, Fibromyalgia, Rheumatoid Arthritis, and I suspect it is all simply a hypothyroid that has never been well managed. After I researched and brought these facts to my primary physician I asked him to change me from Levothyroxin to Armour Thyroid. I am currently on 60 mg Armours and 77mg Levothroxin.
