Hi
My T4 is high (22.2) and T3 low (4.0). It appears I am a poor converter of T4 to T3 and would benefit from taking T3. I am aware the doctors won’t even test for T3 levels, let alone prescribe it. Can anyone recommend a reliable company that sells T3 or even a way to get prescribed in the UK. In desperation I increased my dose of Levo which just increased my T4 to 27 and T3 remained the same. Any advice greatly appreciated.

You are advised to get full thyroid profile bloods done to include TSH, FT4 & FT3 + vitamins ferritin, folate, B12 & D3 and antibodies before your appointment to avoid wasting your first visit.
⚠️ IMPORTANT! When you receive a message with a recommendation, please do not assume it is genuine!
Scammers are joining the forum on a very regular basis and messaging members with their assertions that they have successfully purchased xyz medication from zyx source.
First, do check the profile of the member that sent you the message. (You can find their profile by searching for their name in the member list here healthunlocked.com/thyroidu...
Are they a long term member with an active forum posting history? (Just be cautious and check with admin)
Or are they a recently joined member with little or no posting history? (Do be very suspicious and check with admin)
**** Scammers even join our forum and post a 'fake' story about their thyroid journey, that includes mention of self sourcing their thyroid meds. This is to encourage members to ask them where they purchase their medication without prescription.****

Once you have what you think may be a genuine recommendation, you are strongly encouraged to message an Admin to ask whether the admin team have any feedback on the source you've been given.
Please also tell admin the member name/s that messaged you so that we can check them out if necessary.
Admins are not allowed to recommend sources, but we can tell you what, if any, feedback we've received about the source you've been given.
⚠️ Don't part with your much needed money until you are as sure as you can be that the source is genuine.
