I was told other hormones in this product could cause arthymias & stroke in older patients. My new doctor is refusing to renew my rx, I am 71, though all blood work is perfect. Do I find another Dr. or is it being banned?
Armour + older patients is it being banned In Calif.?

I am almost 79 and fine on the natural Armour. Years ago my doc insisted I do the chemistry version and for me that was a horrible experience. I went back to the more nuanced natural and will continue.
Personally— I would change docs before going chemical. You know your body. Maybe you have a good doctor and he/she would agree to a short experiment on the chemical? But you have to be certain you can go back to the natural if that is in fact better for you. Last I knew— The chemical version is lots more expensive.
