“Post chemo thyroid crisis”

I developed thyroid neuropathy in my legs and vestibular nerve post-chemo and was put on Synthroid for a year. While my numbers in the lab looked better my symptoms remained. I tried PT, OT, acupuncture, and a myriad of supplements to no avail. My internist suggested I try a smaller amount of compounded hormone and within 6 weeks I not only felt better but my balance, gait, and pain greatly improved.
I now have no symptoms and continue my compounded product. Please leave these valuable RXs as and choice and let my MD decide what I need!

On this page, we can only touch on the data that demonstrates the importance of compounded medicines to the lives of millions of people in this country. While the decision to take this vital therapy from patients and physicians might be profitable for big pharmaceutical companies, it will be disastrous for the millions of patients that those same pharmaceutical companies cannot serve!

We encourage the appropriate committees in both the House and Senate to hold hearings on this critical issue.
