Jennifer I am on 90mg of armour (1.5 grains) and 25mcg of levoxyl. During and after pregnancy, my T4 wasn't going high enough on armour alone so I had to bump it up with the levoxyl. (Pregnancy increases your body's ability to convert T4 to T3.)

I used to split my dose with 1 grain in the AM and 1/2 grain around 1-2 pm but I did not really notice a difference when I started taking it all in the morning.

Wiggleynose - good luck with the dr. if yours is a dud, try looking at www.thyroid-info.com and check out 'top docs'. P.S. Howard Stern's website actually has content now?! OMG!
