THANKYOU Mary. They are a great charity.

They really are the CEO works tirelessly for the members every day of the year, I can't thank her enough really, I would not have worked out my problems with my Thyroid without her and the charity... I am a paid up member and will continue to be, as well as of course the online forum on this platform. They have some great admins and support staff, and are how a charity should be! MaryF

I wonder how long it will take for this to filter through to Drs.

mine only do Tsh

Until they come out of the pocket of big pharma it probably will not shift, it is a disgrace that levo thyroxine is the only drug offered, very few get NDT, it is named patient basis only. I pay for all my own thyroid tests and every aspect of my thyroid care, it is a disgrace! MaryF

Thank you for this, Mary. When I feel up to it, I shall read through in detail and see if there is anything that might help me; so far I've got nowhere trying to persuade my docs to give me a free T3 test.

The tests are listed on TUK's website, I do all of mine privately via Blue Horizon, I had no hope with GP's. MaryF
