Hi people, please complete this NHS survey. It takes a while but at the moment they're dismissing us because only 1200 people have completed it. Get your family to do it too! Thanks xxx

Shocking. I live in Scotland and so far, seem to be safe. But Ive filled in the survey in support of this proposed madness. I cant imagine life without T3.

I've tried but it keeps crashing, will try at work, can I just say, there seems to be several petitions going round on the same matter, which is perhaps why more people haven't signed as they probably think they have done so already?

Please if you're not completed this survey yet please take the time to as it only takes 5 mins to do and we need to get as many patients as possible if we're to have a say over what is being deprescrbed,only 1,200 patients have completed this survey that's a measily amount when you consider how many member there are on here.so come on folks lets get together and at least show them we care about keeping our t3.

Done, but it would not be necessary if the NHS paid the proper price for it.

Thanks for signing. What u say is true but those of us who require it shouldn't be used as bargaining chips

Hear hear. My wife needs it, and I am still fighting Government bureaucracy trying to find out why the NHS pays so much for it. At the moment, from all avenues, there appears to be a conspiracy of silence on the issue.

The issue I take is that they are meant to have people who negotiate the price...call me a conspiracy theorist (I might well be) but whichever country you get it from, even when it's cheap, it is more than T4... it make me think that having an inflated price gives more gravity to the p*** poor cost argument... either that or they have very bad negotiators
