If anyone knows they will send you a private message. You can also email louise.warvill@thyroiduk.org and ask for a list and someone suitable may be on it.

I think it is a disgrace to stop prescribing because it is expensive now but you were intolerant of T4 and there is no alternative in the UK>

Sent you a PM.

Could buy it online, I've recently been told by a member here where to get it. About £20 for 100 tablets 25mcg. Don't know how to PM
