I think you maybe meant to post this on the ThyroidUK part of health unlocked - you are on the NRAS site which is arthritis.

If your in the UK then its the GP that does Thyroid although I expect you can see someone privately. I'd be careful too much thyroxine can be dangerous. I take 150mcg a day and its a stable dose. A lot of GP's are wary of over medicating so all you can do is either private or get in front of one and explain how about a small increase ?

thank you for your reply

Been to doctors today will not refer me so am looking at private now .

Will not be picking the endo that refused to see me, shame because I did a lot

Of research on him got great reviews, but sadly one visit would not have hurt to see me , says just keep her 2 and under TSH.

My doctor is lovely but she says she has done her bit referring me can not do any more ,she has been told to stop sending so many referral.

Thanks again

I take it your B12 has been checked as that causes similar symptoms.

Yes everything seems ok apart from high ferritin and low T3 and high T4

hi

It’s not that unusual I have been on levothyroxine for over 35/years and have had it adjusted many times.

Not what you're looking for?
