This whole Armour situation contains enough ingredients to be made into a Robin Cook Best Selling Medical Based Novel.  Perhaps we should solicit his support in getting to the "real conclusion" of the Armour vs. Synthetic Product availability, informed consent - right to know, what truths lie in the answers we are being given based upon who is giving us the information.  We live in a world where people chose their words ever so carefully, where the fear of liability becomes the root of witholding important information that would allow us Thyroid Folks (or lack there of)be able to make informed decisions about the best path for each of us (as individuals), knowing that this path is one we must walk for the rest of our lives.  As a 54 year old adult (also going through menopause)I resent that I cannot get a consistent answer about what the real problem is or isn't, regarding the abrupt withdrawal of a prescription drug from the market, called Armour produced by Forest Labs, forcing my body into a state of detoxification and the need to be placed on an alternative drug (Synthroid) with the added need for the missing components in a shooter called Cytomel.  The FDA Claims to be unaware of the problem, the prescribing Dr.'s were unaware this was iminent leaving the drugstores nationwide and their distributors also pointing fingers at the manufacturers.  Who are we supposed to turn to (I have turned to my local Palm Beach Post Medical Reporter who has been kind enough to try and help uncover this myster for the general public) only to be given the same run around as the rest of us.  I look forward to anyone who can enlighten us and step up?  Does this sounds like "Class Action Suit?"
