NDT advice please

Hello

Could anyone please send me a private message with who would prescribe NDT either an nhs gp or private endo in and around the midlands area?

I’ve been on 125 Levo now for 6 months after it was increased from 50 over a year ago

My last bloods were

Tsh 0.2

T4 19.5

My vits and iron have all been checked numerous times and are well within the reference range top half in most cases

I’m not sure of the reference ranges to be honest my GPs all of them are just awful they don’t listen to me and keep saying it can’t possibly be my thyroid as I’m in range!!!

I am still suffering from symptoms such as

Back ache

Leg ache

Foot pain

Terrible bloating swelling of fingers water retention

Sore breasts especially 2nd half of my cycle

Delayed periods

Constipation

Gerd

Irritability

Panic attack’s

Breathlessness

Tired a lot of the time

I’m really fed up I feel my gp won’t listen and I’ve seen 4 different ones in the same practice

I was accused of being depressed and obese

I’ve put on probably a stone and half in a year and not changed my diet

I am willing to pay private as I’ve just had enough I’m only 40 and feel like I’m 90 some days

Can anyone suggest anyone please as I want to try something new in terms of treatment

You can email Dionne at

tukadmin@thyroiduk.org

and ask for the list of thyroid friendly doctors. Then you could ask on the forum for feedback on any that you can travel to, replies will have to be by private message. You could also telephone any of the doctors' secretaries to see if they does actually prescribe NDT.

**

If anyone can help, they will send you a private message with information so I will close your post as we can't discuss individual doctors on the open forum.
