Hi my names Angela. I'm 50years old I have underactive thyroid and I am on 200mg of Levothyroxine a day. I am feeling so ill. Not sure if there's perrimenopause mixed in also. All my GP offers is antidepressants. I've been seeing a Endocrinologist at Sheffield Hosp but I'm not impressed so I'm looking for another Endocrinologist one who I can see private and who dosnt just test TSH and maybe trial me on T3. I can't take another 10years of feeling so ill. Anxiety, dry mouth, pulse racing, and just generally feeling so unwell and very frightened. Sheffield , Wakefield, Leeds or Manchester areas are all good for me if anyone can recommend. Thankyou

AngelaC66,
You can order your own thyroid tests including FT3 via thyroiduk.org.uk/tuk/testin...
Email louise.roberts@thyroiduk.org.uk for a list of member recommended endos. Check with their offices whether T3 is prescribed before you confirm an appointment.
28 x 20mcg will cost £258+ with a private prescription. It will be vastly cheaper to buy T3 online instead.
Thankyou very much for this info. I will email her now. Much appreciated
