Oh - if we just had lots of Dr S's who treated the patient and not the blood tests we would all be better off.

He is very sadly missed and I assume the doctors trained in his era will have retired by now. They were trained before blood tests/levo were introduced we'd be a lot better off. Particularly if levo isn't doing us any favours.

If anyone has a suggestion they will send you a Private Message as no names are placed on the main forum - just in case they have problems like Dr S and others had to put up with.

Email louise.warvill@thyroiduk.org who has a list of doctors. You can then post a name asking for a Private Message to be sent to you of a recommendation.
