1st appointment with Endo advice

I'm going to see the Endo next week for the first time. I'm hoping they will look at my bloods and agree that I need a T4 & T3 combination. Any advice for my first appointment?

Don't want to be a kill joy, do you know if this endo will prescribe t3? If he/she does great hopefully they will ask about symptoms and order blood tests including ft3 and ft4 to look at conversion problems. If they don't prescribe or believe in liothyronine it could be a frustrating trip. You could probably ring their secretary to ask that question if you don't know.
