I was seen by an endo @N&N in 2012 for my 'm.e'. She was good in terms of being happy to leave me on T4/T3 combo - unlike Wales - and did appropriate cortisol tests for Cushings and Addison's - but did not make the connnection between my M.E and hypo thyroid adrenal insufficiency because like all of them she relies on blood tests etc. But she was ok about my TSH being significantly surpressed. Hope that helps.

Hi all... I wondered whether anyone had a list of the Endos which they could email me. I'm seeing a reluctant GP in half and hour and I would like to go in assertively and ask for a referral. Just thought of this; hoping that someone is online, please pm me.
