Levoxyl & Armour

I was dx'ed hypo nearly 6 years ago and I've never felt my symptoms have totally disappeared or at least to the point of not being noticeable on most days. Lately, the mental fog & fatigue have been the worst.
I saw an Endo for the first time about 2 weeks ago. She explained that even though my labs have been normal, I may not be a good T3 converter thus having so many hypo symptoms despite seemingly appropriate treatment. (It felt so good to have someone listen to me rather than rely solely on my lab results!) I went for bloodwork and just found out my labs came back normal again, so she decreased my Levoxyl and is adding Armour. She said the goal is to make me feel better as well as keeping my levels within the normal range. (Is she for real? This seems too good to be true! ;o)
Is anyone on this combination of drugs? How long did it take to feel any effects? What results did you notice?
I'm praying this is going to be the "magic pill" for me in getting me to feel better, (like my old self again), as well as losing weight.
