A great GP!! :-)

I'm really pleased to say I went back to GP today to say I am still symptomatic despite my figures being in normal range, she said "I've learned to treat the patient and not the numbers" shes increased my dose of Levo and said come back in 8 weeks for blood test and we can increase again if necessary. I'd gone in armed with articles and evidence but she just totally agreed. Awesome :-)
