Hi Billy,

Award yourself a pay rise, better still get one from your editor. Read your article in Tuesday's paper (catching up on reading). Brilliant. Am going to send all three of your articles to Sarah Wollaston MP.

Best regards

Riki

Sorry, am I missing something? Are you posting private messages on the forum, Airmed? I don't understand.

CarolineC57,

Click on Airmeds name (in blue). it will take you to her posting history. You can then see that she is keeping us up to date on the ongoing saga of extortionate pricing of T3 medication by AMCo that was first exposed in The Times on Friday 3rd June by Billy Kenber

No CarolineC57 I am posting correspondence between The Times newspaper reporter and myself regarding his ongoing exposure of NHS being ripped off, with a particular interest in T3. I hope you don't have a problem with that.

Oh right, OK. No, obviously I've got no problem with that at all. I'd seen another post like this from you yesterday - I just thought maybe you thought you were chatting privately with someone via PM when you were actually posting on the forum. I have seen other people mistakenly do that on Health Unlocked!

Anyway, keep up the good work. I didn't know anything about this. Well done! :-)

There is a petition running that was started as a result of The Times article.

Perhaps you could post the article like the first was or would that be copyright? Its not much use only having your thanks to the journalist. I did buy Saturday' s edition and it was a powerful piece.

Got it Airmed and thanks red apple,although it kept vanishing from my screen.

Its difficult to follow every post every day. TPA has done some research on T3 costs in various European countries - around £20 per 100 pills but about £3 in Greece for 25mcg pills as against £900 plus in UK . Difficult to produce!!!

Not what you're looking for?
