I Experienced Serious Allergic Reactions To Armour Thyroid In May.....night

I experienced serious allergic reactions to armour thyroid in May.....night time body jerks, swelling of face, hands feet, tongue, rash etc. In addition my body was not absorbing the T4 only using the T3, by June I was in the ER with a :TSH level of 22. I am currently on Synthroid 125, but still experience some of the negative side effects.....many of these symptons mirror hyer parathyroid, but lab work does not support this. My calcium is high....10.2 but the pth is in normal range. I'm at my wits end with depression, insomnia, muscle quivers, tight throat, pressure in ears, the list goes on
