I second that Pamela 0106.

I'm on numerous fb thyroid support groups and I cannot believe how many people are worried/suffering at the prospect of having t3 deprescribed.

It's the most dreadful situation . Especially for those that can't afford to buy their own medication. We need everyone to sign the petition.

Thanks for posting.😊

Thanks lovely xx I've posted it so many times in Facebook groups (including my own one) and will keep doing so.

I can't believe how many have not signed it yet. I really hope we can do this!

The campaign is working so hard to make this worthwhile and I'm so happy Thyroid UK are campaigning now too.

We live in hope! 🤞🏼❤️🦋

There are 63,911 members on this forum and yet the petition has been signed by ONLY 19,636 people.

One would wonder that we are asking people to sign their souls away!

There are so many of us here who are begging for help, for advice, for contact details of T3 and ndt suppliers, and spend time moaning and complaining about difficulties with diagnosis, unnaceptably low standards of thyroid treatment and arrogant attitudes of doctors.

I understand that many of us are very unwell. I also understand that many of us have improved, are getting on with their lives and rarely visit this forum. However, I am feeling frustrated by rather poor response of HU members.

We are NOT asking you to sign and share this petition for me, not for Pamela0106, not for Ursa, and not for Kitti1. We are NOT asking you to sigh it for any of the ITT members. Most of us are well or are in the process of getting well...that's why we have energy and motivation to want to change things.

Please sign it for yourself, for your relatives with thyroid disorders, for your friends, for other people who are experiencing inadequate thyroid treatment.

Signing the petition is the least you can do.

Lol it's why I've got to begging stage too.

Things won't change if we don't speak out. The way to do that is by signing the petition as well as making use of the other campaign tools (both ITT and Thyroid UK are campaigning).

I say do it for yourselves too but also do it for the future generations too! ❤️🦋

Pamela0106,

For some reason the links to the petition that you and Tia have posted today are not clickable. Members won't find the petitition if you don't make sure it is clickable. On HU clickable links are highlighted in blue after you submit your post.

Keep signing and sharing for those of us who are suffering and those of us to come. I have today put up another poster at Roundwood Garden Centre, Braintree, Essex, run by people with special needs, some of whom, I know, have Thyroid problems.

Thanks everyone! The work being done in TUK and ITT in campaigning this is inspiring to me! I'm so glad forums like this exist where people care and are happy to represent the masses in such an important issue xx #TUK #ITT xxx
