Hi, I'm new here so sorry if it's already been discussed.

Since I've been hypo my blood pressure has been a little on the high side (125/80-130/85). I've been on Levolxyl for 10 weeks and added Cytomel 2 weeks ago. Recently my bp has been creeping up. This morning it was 135/88. I'm getting worried. Although I've been feeling better overall I think these meds are not dealing with the fluid retention very well. The morning bags under my eyes have been actully getting worse (my sodium intake has not increased) and the sleep wrinkles litterally take hours to go away. I've heard Armour, probably due to some unknown element, is better at reducing excess fluid than synthetics. I was wondering, has anyone else had trouble getting bp and excess fluid down with synthetics and found that switching to Armour resolved the issues?
