Doc has agreed to have my bloods retested on Monday instead of August but when I mentioned T3 and 4 moved the subject on saying that was not necessary.

He has put me on Spironolactone?? apparently this might help with the hairloss anyone heard of this???

Anyway I will post all the results when I get them next week

Thanks Netty

I'm sorry you've had no replies, Netty46.

Spironolactone is a diuretic. I'm not sure how that will help with hairloss.

That's fine Clutter thanks I looked in to it and it is used for hairloss although it takes a long time and initially hairloss increase (?? Not sure how that would make me feel better lol) anyway I decided against taking them as they can also cause tumours so thought I'd just wait for the results of this week's bloods

Thanks
