Clearly demonstrating poor conversion

Have you had vitamin levels checked since T3 stopped ?

How long since T3 stopped?

Do you have Hashimoto's also called autoimmune thyroid disease? If so you may need to be strictly gluten free too

Ari444,

If you felt well on T3 and feel worse now without it, I suggest you write to your endo and cc the hospital PALS service telling them you feel less well and request that T3 is reinstated. The BTA issued guidance that patients doing well on T3 should not have their prescriptions with-drawn. See FAQS for patients and GPs in british-thyroid-association...

If members can recommend T3 sources they will send you a private message. Feedback can't be posted on the forum so I am closing your post to replies. To read a private message: support.healthunlocked.com/...
