The NHS are running a Consultation until 21st October that identifies "Items which should not be routinely prescribed in primary care: A Consultation on guidance for CCGs" .....

This includes Liothyronine (T3) (Section 4.9) amongst other things!

Read the consultation here:

It is NHS England consultation but these same drugs are already being ceased all over the UK.

Have your say! Fill in the consultation document! Let your voice be heard.

Also - if you want to take action on T3 and STOP ITS WITHDRAWAL ... sign the petition here:

Thank you for that link. It will help me tremendously.

I have to say ... today is a brain fog day for me - I have been trying desperately to share the consultation survey as well as the petition for 3 weeks now but I've held off on filling in the survey. I will be doing it though without a doubt.

The questions are slyly written in my opinion and I'm actually struggling with a few of them just because my brain doesn't appear to be functioning whenever I attempt it! 😩

So important we all complete it though. Appreciate your reply xx
