After my last blood test, my doctor has recommended a couple of new things in my daily regiment. My cholesterol is high, so she has asked that I do either South Beach or Paleo for 6 months to see if we can get it down by diet alone. My thyroid is at 2.59 so she has recommended a low dose of armour to see if it helps with my energy level and to see if it helps me get my weight down. I started taking it three days ago. Since then I have felt very depressed and weepy and I have had trouble sleeping. Is this normal? Will it go away? Is this the diet or is it the medicine? I am feeling hopeless.
