Does anyone on the forum get a NHS prescription for t3 if yes can they tell me if there GP gives them more than a months supply at a time,reason I'm asking I rang my GP this morning to ask for two months supply because I'm going on holiday receptionist asked when I was going I said 14th October she said they're only allowed to prescribe less than 100 tablets at a time and two months supply would take me to 120 tablets she said its policy in all practices across Scotland.she said I can order another prescription a few days before I leave for holiday but it will be put in my records I got a prescription before it was due.
Nothing surprises me anymore what a crazy world we live in.

Thanks for your reply,my GP hasn't been happy about endo requesting her to prescribe me t3 since 2015,GP wasn't bothered about me self medicating since 2010 her attitude stinks my health isn't good leukaemia diabetes and hypothyroidism,I wanted a two months prescription I'm hoping to be on a break somewhere in Scotland next month she asked when I was going I told her she said come into the surgery a couple of days before you go on your break and I'll give you your usual months supply, I thought she would just give me enough for sept and oct, I just don't get it,it's a one off,some doctors are horrible.
I'm aware of the situation in England I think it's awful,I know the quality of life I've had since getting t3 in 2010,people out there suffering because they're either undiagnosed or on t4.The makers of t3 in the Uk are billionaires or racketeers I like to call them,No one cares the people in power that can do something about it just ignore it.
I think it may be almost as bad in Scotland. Many Health Authorities have banned prescribing of T3 on NHS even if NHS Scotland haven't issued a national ban.
I know Scotland is just as bad, it will be stopped here sometime.why is it so cheap in Europe? Do politicians have shares in uk pharmaceutical companies? Or is it my first thought no one cares.
Shocking!!!! what I don't understand is if they're doing this why don't pharmacies get our t3 from Europe a local chemist got it for me once but my doctor says its unlicensed in the UK so she wouldn't allow it under a named patient either,surely the government can change the law,pharmaceuticals rule the world 😡
