Thank goodness a GP who is happy for me to stay on my 150 dose hasn't poo pooed my thyroid uk info and who also is referring me to an endo at the local hospital. Only joy I didn't get was added T3, but happy I have been listened to. He also stopped my fluoxetine as I requested as I have weaned off. relief. Hope next stage is as helpful.

So good to hear of a receptive GP, a treasure. Also so glad you are now off the fluoxetine as this has a fluoride molecule and fluoride is any shape or form is really bad news for the thyroid. See:
