I am sorry your GP is not co-operative. If anyone knows of a GP in your area they should send a private message to you as we don't usually name them on the forum.

If you email louise.warvill@thyroiduk.org and ask for a list of NHS Endocrinologists/private doctors if you would like to see someone other than your GP. She will be back in the office on Monday but may take a few days to email you.

This is a link I read today:-

thyroid.about.com/b/2010/05...

I hope you feel better soon. The addition of T3 may help you, although I doubt if she would prescribe this for you. I had some added to my T4 and it did work wonders. It doesn't work for everyone but at least I think we should have a trial.
